Correct Option: C
A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction but does not affect the position of equilibrium. It increases the rate of both the forward and reverse reactions equally, allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster but not altering the position of equilibrium itself.
