← ScienceWhich consequence results when using a catalyst inhibitor to control reaction rate?
A)Reduced activation energy demand
B)Altered equilibrium rate constants
C)Decreased concentration of product✓
D)Rate constants are now negative
💡 Explanation
Inhibitors decrease reaction rate because of competitive inhibition, blocking available active sites and thus slowing product formation; therefore the concentration of products decrease, rather than the altered activation rate, which a true reaction catalyst would enable.
