It changes the reaction's overall Gibbs free energy change (ΔG) to make the reaction more favorable.
B
It increases the activation energy to prevent side reactions.
C
It lowers the activation energy by stabilizing the transition state.
D
It is consumed during the reaction, providing the energy needed to overcome the activation barrier.
