a. Less and less of product AB
b. More and more of product AB with no limit to the amount of AB produced
c. No change in the amount of AB produced
d. More and more of product AB but limited by the amount of B

9. In a chemical reaction, if the reactants are heated, the reaction usually happens
a. Faster b. Slower c. At the same rate d. In a smaller volume
10. Some chemical reactions require a substance called a catalyst. The main purpose of a catalyst is
a. To warm up the reaction b. To speed up the reaction c. To create more reactants d. To stop the reaction
