Which consequence results when reactant concentration limits reaction velocity?

A)Reach maximum reaction rate (Vmax)✓

B)Favors reverse reaction direction

C)Increases catalyst turnover number

D)Alters equilibrium constants value

💡 Explanation

Reaching Vmax occurs due to insufficient reactant concentration affecting the reaction velocity because the available enzyme active sites become saturated, limiting further rate increases despite further catalyst presence; therefore, the rate plateaus rather than shifting equilibrium due to concentration alone.
