A researcher is designing a laboratory experiment to determine whether the inorganic substance A affects the rate of a reaction between two colored liquids, X and Y. When the reaction is complete, the liquid is clear. The reaction between X and Y is similar to one used by manufacturers to produce certain chemicals in factories. Which method would best answer his question about reaction rate and what will he find out about substance A?

The first step he will make is to know how much time would it take to clear the liquid if X and Y re mixed together. Then he should measure the time of that how long will it take to add A into X and Y. He will conclude that A is a catalyst at the end.
