← ScienceWhich outcome results when excess product accumulates in catalytic converter?
A)Catalyst active site poisoning occurs
B)Rate constants remain unaffected ideally
C)Equilibrium shifts towards reactants✓
D)Activation energy reaches zero threshold
💡 Explanation
Accumulation disrupts equilibrium established within the converter. Le Chatelier's principle dictates the equilibrium position will shift towards greater reactant regeneration in effect, because it relieves product concentration. Therefore the equilibrium shifts toward the reactants, rather than further product formation.
