← ScienceWhich consequence accelerates equilibrium establishment upon catalyst addition?
A)Reduced activation energy barrier height✓
B)Increased reactant thermodynamic activity
C)Enhanced product conformational entropy
D)Decreased product solvation free energy
💡 Explanation
Lowering the activation energy barrier height expedites both forward and reverse reactions because it decreases the kinetic barrier, therefore equilibrium reaches sooner, rather than merely affecting reactant/product thermodynamic properties.
