Which consequence occurs when a catalyst doubles pre-exponential A constant?

💡 Explanation

Increasing the pre-exponential factor (A) in the Arrhenius equation directly increases the reaction rate constant because the activation energy term is unchanged; therefore, reaction rate doubles, rather than changes to activation energy or only affecting the equilibrium constant.
