← ScienceWhich mechanism affects reaction rate when a zeolite catalyst's geometry changes?
A)Reduced activation energy requirement✓
B)Lowered kinetic energy distribution
C)Increased reaction equilibrium constant
D)Enhanced diffusion-limited collision frequency
💡 Explanation
Steric hindrance within the zeolite impacts the preferred reaction pathway by influencing steric effects reflected in transition state stabilization, which changes observed activation energy; therefore the answer is reduced energy, rather than impacting general average kinetic energy.
