Which outcome results when insufficient reactant surface exposure limits a catalyzed chemical reaction?

A)Diminished reaction equilibrium rate constant
B)Increased reverse reaction process shift
C)Reduced rate of product formation
D)Elevated catalyst surface area requirement

💡 Explanation

Insufficient surface restricts reactant-catalyst interactions, creating limited active sites; thus, the adsorption *mechanism* directly hinders the conversion from reactants to products. Product is created at a slower rate because the primary reaction pathway cannot keep performing rather than equilibrium shifting.
