Solution
The correct option is A E E is the correct option. Catalyst decreases the activation energy requirement and increases the rate of the chemical reaction. Here A is the activation energy required for the reaction to occur when there is no catalyst. And E is the activation energy required for the reaction to occur in presence of a catalyst.
