← ScienceWhich consequence results when catalyst lattice parameters mismatch?
A)Decreased catalytic surface area✓
B)Increased product inhibition effects
C)Enhanced catalyst thermal stability
D)Improved reactant diffusion through pores
💡 Explanation
Decreased catalytic surface area occurs via catalyst sintering, because the lattice mismatch causes increased surface energy leading to agglomeration; therefore fewer active sites are exposed rather than increased stability arising from decreased surface energy.
