Science

Which outcome occurs when increasing temperature significantly above the Arrhenius constant during catalyzed reaction?

A)Catalyst bed sintering accelerates rapidly
B)Reaction activation energy decreases dramatically
C)Surface area scales linearly faster
D)Rate constant deviates predictably downward

💡 Explanation

Catalyst bed sintering accelerates rapidly because higher thermal energy promotes atomic diffusion, surpassing activation energy; therefore, surfaces agglomerate, diminishing the active area, rather than a uniform scaling pattern, because extreme heat changes kinetic pathway.
