Which mechanism limits hydrogen peroxide decomposition rate at low temperatures?

A)Arrhenius equation activation energy barrier
B)Diffusion-controlled collision frequency limit
C)Increased product inhibition equilibrium point
D)Decreased entropy favors reactants only

💡 Explanation

The decomposition slows because low temperature yields insufficient thermal energy to overcome the Arrhenius equation activation energy barrier, therefore few molecules react. Enzyme catalysis requires sufficient energy at their active sites, rather than collision frequency limiting the reaction.
