Which risk increases when a solid catalyst deactivates?

A)Rate limitation, because of poisoning
B)Reduced pressure leads to cavitation
C)Increased conversion with larger byproduct
D)Shift in the dissolution equilibrium

💡 Explanation

Rate of product formation is decreased on the catalyst's surface because active sites become blocked via catalyst poisoning. Therefore, reaction rate slows, rather than increasing reaction conversion or issues like cavitation which are unrelated.
