← ScienceWhich mechanism reduces activation energy barriers for reactants?
A)Catalyst provides alternate reaction pathway✓
B)Increased temperature shifts Boltzmann distribution
C)Product removal shifts equilibrium forward
D)Increased concentration accelerates collision frequency
💡 Explanation
Added catalyst facilitates an alternate pathway, lowering the activation energy requirement of the reaction. This Acceleration of pathway, because catalysts provide a transition state, therefore speeding up reaction rates rather than merely shifting equilibrium like concentration changes change kinetics.
