Question

Consider the equilibrium A ⇌ B in which both the
forward and reverse reactions are elementary (single-step)
reactions. Assume that the only effect of a catalyst on the
reaction is to lower the activation energies of the forward
and reverse reactions. Using the
Arrhenius equation, prove that the equilibrium
constant is the same for the catalyzed reaction as for
the uncatalyzed one.
