Which consequence accelerates equilibrium establishment upon catalyst addition?

💡 Explanation

Lowering the activation energy barrier height expedites both forward and reverse reactions because it decreases the kinetic barrier, therefore equilibrium reaches sooner, rather than merely affecting reactant/product thermodynamic properties.
