Which outcome occurs when a catalyst deactivates because of fouling?

💡 Explanation

Increased activation energy results from Diffusion Limitation, because fouling blocks reactant access; therefore reactants require more energy to react rather than altering the equilibrium constant, because equilibrium is a thermodynamic rather than kinetic property.
