Which statement is correct about the rate of chemical reactions?

it increases when the temperature decreases.
it increases when a catalyst is added.
it does not depend on the temperature.
it does not depend on the presence of catalysts.

It increases when a catalyst is added.

Explanation:

The following factors control reaction rates:

1. Nature of reactants

2. Concentration of the reactants or pressure of gaseous

3. Temperature

4. Presence of catalyst

5. Sunlight

The addition of a foreign body to a reaction may influence the speed of the reaction. If a foreign body increases the rate of reaction, it is a called a positive catalyst or simply a catalyst. A negative catalyst is called an inhibitor.

A catalyst is a substance that is introduced into a chemical reaction to change the rate of the reaction without itself being affected at the end of the reaction.

Catalysts helps to reduce reaction time of many slow reactions. Most catalysts are specific in their actions and works on certain reactions or substrates.

Temperature change has a considerable effect on reaction rates since temperature is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of reacting particles. Generally, reaction rate varies as temperature directly.
