← ScienceWhich outcome is accelerated within exothermic reactions when using catalysts?
A)Lowering activation energy requirements✓
B)Increasing reactant equilibrium constant
C)Decreasing enthalpy of products
D)Raising overall reaction order
💡 Explanation
The catalyzed reaction accelerates because catalysts provide an alternate reaction pathway, lowering the activation energy; therefore a higher fraction of molecular collisions result in successful reactions, rather than primarily affecting reactant equilibria or enthalpy scales.
