Which kinetic consequence is observed when catalyst doubles?

A)Activation energy remains nearly unchanged
B)Equilibrium constant quickly decreases
C)Reverse reaction rate diminishes faster
D)Overall reaction slows exponentially fast

💡 Explanation

When a catalyst doubles, Ea is unchanged because a catalyst provides an alternative pathway, lowering (but not eliminating) the activation, therefore the activation energy approaches an unchanging value rather than a rapid decrease under kinetic control.
