In the industrial production of sulfur trioxide (the Contact Process), vanadium(V) oxide is used as a catalyst.
2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g) \text{2SO}_2\text{(g)} + \text{O}_2\text{(g)} \rightleftharpoons \text{2SO}_3\text{(g)} 2SO2(g)+O2(g)⇌2SO3(g)Predict the effect that adding this catalyst has on the rate of attainment of dynamic equilibrium.
