Which consequence results when a catalyst deactivates within a fixed-volume batch reactor?

💡 Explanation

Deactivation lowers available active sites, therefore the forward reaction rate decelerates due to decreased effective concentration; the equilibrium remains unchanged because thermodynamic factors, rather than kinetics, dictate equilibrium limits.
