Which consequence results when a positive catalyst's surface area is diminished during ethylene polymerization reactions?

💡 Explanation

A smaller surface area reduces the binding sites available for ethylene monomers, decreasing access to active sites, therefore the reaction rate decreases, rather than accelerating, due to surface adsorption limitations hindering efficient collisions on catalysts.
