BY catalysis we designate the mechanism by virtue of which certain chemical reactions are caused, or accelerated, by substances which do not appear to take any part in the reactions. A mixture of hydrogen and oxygen is stable at ordinary temperatures, but the introduction of a piece of platinum black causes immediate explosive combination; the platinum black is not visibly affected and can repeat the same effects indefinitely.
