Which outcome changes when inhibiting a reaction's mass-transport limited regime?

💡 Explanation

The observed rate constant decreases if mass transport becomes limited, because reactants can't reach the active sites as efficiently. This is due to mass transport being a limiting factor, therefore the observed rate constant drops rather than being thermodynamically limited or affected.
