← ScienceWhich outcome arises when an uncatalyzed reaction's temperature decreases?
A)Reduced fraction reaching activation energy✓
B)Increased equilibrium favors product formation
C)Enhanced transition state complex stability
D)Significant decrease in the reactor's efficiency
💡 Explanation
Lowering the temperature reduces the kinetic energy, therefore fewer molecules overcome the reaction's activation energy barrier because the Boltzmann distribution shifts toward lower energies rather than a stabilized transition state or favoring equilibrium.
