← ScienceWhich outcome results when a catalyst reduces hydrogen activation energy?
A)Reaction rate increases significantly✓
B)Vibrational modes dampen quicker
C)Reactants undergo phase transition
D)System thermodynamic equilibrium shifts
💡 Explanation
Lowering the activation energy through **catalysis** increases the fraction of molecules possessing sufficient energy to react, because catalyst weakens the original hydrogen bond. Therefore the reaction rate increases; rather than a shift in equilibrium due to thermodynamics alone, other options apply for different effects.
