Which rate-altering mechanism dominates when a solid catalyst surface area in a liquid reaction increases?

💡 Explanation

When solid catalyst surface area increases, the number of available active sites for reactant molecules escalates, leading to enhanced reactant adsorption based on surface kinetics. Enhanced adsorption therefore results, rather than energy reduction since that's intrinsic to inherent catalytic properties alone.
