Which outcome results when a catalyst saturates in solution?

💡 Explanation

The reaction rate plateaus as the catalyst is rate-limiting because all active sites are occupied, therefore rate becomes independent of substrate concentration at high excesses rather than activation energy changing significantly or shifting equilibrium.
