Catalysts in Year 7 Science
Start here
Focus on explaining how catalysts, including enzymes, affect reactions. Open support for “Find Out About Enzymes”, then explain the idea in your own words.
Year 7 learners practise explaining how catalysts, including enzymes, affect reactions.
The activities include Find Out About Enzymes, Investigate Enzymes as Catalysts, Learn About Catalysts, and related practice. The checked support below includes lesson, video, worksheet, teaching. Open a resource in its provider's website and choose the format that best helps the learner explain the idea independently.
