Which consequence results when high activation energy prevents a chemical reaction?

A)Insufficient product generates with unstable forms✓

B)Increased catalyst productivity through energy reduction

C)Faster reaction times due rapid equilibrium

D)Higher entropy decreases system energy

💡 Explanation

A high activation barrier means reactant molecules lack sufficient kinetic energy, therefore fewer collisions lead to successful reactions based on collision theory, resulting in an insufficient product with potentially unstable reaction intermediate forms rather than reaching equilibrium.
