Which outcome results from reducing activation energy input?

A)Increased reaction rate constant
B)Decreased reaction equilibrium constant
C)Reduced catalyst surface poisoning
D)Lowered thermodynamic product stability

💡 Explanation

A catalyst lowers activation energy, thereby increasing the frequency of successful molecular collisions, resulting in rate constant increase. Therefore, the rate will increase, rather than other properties changing or catalyst issues arising because the activation energy relates directly to the observed kinetic rate.
