← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when a reversible catalytic reaction reaches minimum Gibbs Free Energy at constant temperature and pressure?
A)Reaction rates equalize exhibiting dynamic equilibrium✓
B)Catalyst structural change inducing permanent deactivation
C)Forward reaction ceases due to thermodynamic limitations
D)Reactant concentration increase driving product deviation
💡 Explanation
When minimum Gibbs Free Energy is reached, the forward and reverse reactions proceed at equal rates within a dynamic equilibrium because the system is at its lowest energy state. Therefore the reaction rates equalize results, rather than deactivation, cessation, or deviation which would imply incomplete reaction.
