What is the role of a catalyst in a chemical reaction?

For the reaction $A_2 + B_2 \rightleftharpoons 2 AB$,the activation energies $(E_a)$ for the forward and backward reactions are $180 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ and $200 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. If a catalyst lowers the $E_a$ for both reactions by $100 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,which of the following statements is correct?

Consider the following reversible reaction,
$A_{(g)} + B_{(g)} \rightleftharpoons AB_{(g)}.$
The activation energy of the backward reaction exceeds that of the forward reaction by $2RT$ (in $J \ mol^{-1}$). If the pre-exponential factor of the forward reaction is $4$ times that of the reverse reaction,the absolute value of $\Delta G^{\ominus}$ (in $J \ mol^{-1}$) for the reaction at $300 \ K$ is. . . . . (Given; $\ln(2)=0.7, RT=2500 \ J \ mol^{-1}$ at $300 \ K$ and $G$ is the Gibbs energy)

What is the slope of the graph between $\ln K$ and $\frac{1}{T}$ according to the Arrhenius equation?

The rate of a chemical reaction doubles for every $10^\circ \text{C}$ rise in temperature. If the temperature is increased by $50^\circ \text{C}$,the rate of reaction will increase by a factor of ........
