Science

Which outcome reduces the required energy input during cracking?

A)Increased catalyst surface area availability
B)Decreased average product molecular weight
C)Elevated reactor operating system pressure
D)Reduced gaseous phase reaction residence

💡 Explanation

Increased catalyst surface area lowers the activation energy because heterogeneous interfaces undergo adsorption, accelerating bond breakage via a catalytic mechanism, therefore more cracking occurs at lower temperatures rather than without catalysts at high energy demands.
