Which risk increases when a platinum catalyst promotes hydrogen dissociation?

💡 Explanation

Increased surface area for reactants leads to adsorption, therefore increasing poisoning risk resulting from side reactions, because the mechanism of catalyst poisoning involves blocking active sites rather than directly affecting conductivity, rate or transition energies.
