What does a catalyst do? Explain the role of enzymes in biological reactions.

A patient had severe acid reflux symptoms and decided to take the antacid, Amphojel (aluminum hydroxide). Answer both parts. If this is an oxidation-reduction (redox) and/or precipitation reaction, then show work to support your answer. If this is not an oxidation-reduction (redox) and/or precipitation reaction, then show work to support your answer. Assume that Calcium Iodide and Sodium Oxalate are the starting substances (reactants) in the reaction: What type of reaction(s) is/are being represented by the chemical reaction?
