The best answer to this question is adding a catalyst. 
Adding a catalyst  will cause the greatest increase in the rate of reaction for this chemical reaction , 8Zn(s) + S8(s) 8ZnS(s).

---> adding a catalyst always affects the rate of a reaction.

Answer:

Adding a catalyst

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance that can affect the rate of a reaction, while not changing itself. A good example of a biological catalyst, would be an enzyme.

While increasing the temperature of the reaction might increase the rate of reaction, adding a catalyst will exponentially increase the rate of reaction.

Catalysts can be used in industry, when the product is not being produced fast enough, a catalyst is added.
