Dear praneeth bonu,

Elementary reactions are classified according to their molecularity. The number of reacting species, which are involved in simultaneous collision to bring about a chemical reaction is called the molecularity of the reaction.

Addition of a Catalyst does not change the molecularity because it is the number of reacting species that is involved in simultaneous collision in order to perform a chemical reaction ..

Catalyst does not count as a reacting species !!
