Which consequence results when catalyst active sites become blocked?

💡 Explanation

When active sites are blocked, surface area diminishes, inhibiting reactant adsorption, and therefore the amount of product formed drops because the reduction in surface sites decreases reaction rate rather than increasing it; alternative products or pathways aren't necessarily altered.
