← ScienceWhich consequence results when intermediate product concentration exceeds equilibrium at fixed temperature?
A)Reverse reaction rate increases✓
B)Catalyst deactivation accelerates sharply
C)Overall enthalpy change is minimized
D)Activation energy barrier decreases
💡 Explanation
An excess causes the reverse reaction rate to sharply increase due to Le Chatelier's principle, seeking to restore equilibrium. Therefore, the reverse direction speeds up, rather than an alternative like catalyst deactivation which stems from different reaction conditions.
