Which outcome occurs when a catalyst destabilizes electron orbitals in a reactants?

💡 Explanation

A lowered activation energy results due to orbital destabilization; the catalyst achieves this via a **transition state stabilization,** because this allows the reaction to proceed by requiring less energy to begin, therefore resulting in faster rate, rather than kinetic stability changes or high entropy.
