Which outcome lowers a reaction vessel's overall temperature when using platinum catalysts?

A)Increased catalytic surface area coverage
B)Decreased activation energy requirement
C)Increased rate of product diffusion
D)Decreased adsorption enthalpy magnitude

💡 Explanation

Increased product diffusion carries energy from the Pt surface into bulk solution; because product molecules depart before transferring all energy as heat, therefore rate of catalytic product separation lowers vessel temp, rather than allowing total equilibration.
