A catalyst is used such that not too high a temperature is used as it lowers
Ea of the forward and backward reaction and increased the rate by the
same extent, hence causing equilibrium position to remain the same but
rate in which equilibrium reached is faster.
In this manner, yield and rate will not be compromised for one over the
other.
[Note: 3rd and 4th points are often missed out because students forget that
catalyst allow a fast rate of reaction to occur at a lower temperature because
the Ea is lowered.]
