Which outcome results when a lower-than-required catalyst concentration is used in ethylene polymerization?

💡 Explanation

A slower rate is observed because the active sites for polymerization are proportionally reduced; it is a rate limiting step and fewer productive collisions occur. Therefore, overall rate decreases, rather than chain properties changing under excess catalyst present.
