← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when an excess of product accumulates in a reversible enzymatic reaction vessel?
A)Rate of reverse reaction increases✓
B)Equilibrium constant increases sharply
C)Enzyme's active site denatures
D)Forward reaction rate accelerates instead
💡 Explanation
The rate of the reverse reaction increases because Le Chatelier's principle favors relieving the stress caused by excess product, therefore the reverse reaction is accelerated, rather than the forward reaction continuing unhindered.
