Which outcome occurs when positive interference reduces activation energy?

A)Accelerated reaction kinetics achieved
B)Exothermic reaction is suppressed
C)Equilibrium constant decreases slowly
D)Catalyst deactivation by oxidation increases

💡 Explanation

Accelerated reaction kinetics is achieved because constructive quantum 'tunneling' probability increases; the **Arrhenius equation** models the rate constant increase. Therefore, reaction proceeds more quickly, rather than suppressing the reactions or altering equilibrium under the same constraints.
