Which consequence results when catalyst carrier particle size reduction plateaus below turnover rate influencing effective surface area?

💡 Explanation

The reaction rate constant stabilizes because the **active site saturation** limits further rate increases despite increased surface area on a nanoscopic scale; therefore, the observed rate plateaus rather than continuing linear increase because physical transport limitations intervene.
