Which consequence results when catalyst surface area diminishes?

A)Lower reaction initiation rate
B)Elevated product equilibrium yield
C)Reduced catalyst poisoning effect
D)Greater exothermic reaction intensity

💡 Explanation

Lower reaction initiation results, because decreased catalyst surface area reduces available active sites, impeding the adsorption and subsequent reaction of reactants – Arrhenius equation; therefore, the rate decreases, rather than exhibiting altered equilibrium or other catalytic effects.
