Catalysts in rate law
if there is a homogeneous or heterogeneous catalyst present in the slow reaction, does it show up in the overall rate law? Or would this just be considered zero order so the rate = k?

Re: Catalysts in rate law
Catalysts aren't used up on the reaction, but they do show up in the overall rate law because the rate depends on their concentration.
