Which consequence emerges when a zeolite catalyst degrades, thus decreasing its effective rate constant?

💡 Explanation

Reduced effective rate constant causes the reaction to appear to reach equilibrium sooner because the rate-determining steps are slowed, therefore the reaction stabilizes seemingly earlier rather than achieving true chemical equilibrium with all products formed.
