Which one of the following standard rate constants would have the lowest value and why? O k3 since it is separated by the highest activation energy barrier and limits the overall catalytic rate since it separates E from P O k-1 since it is separated by the highest activation energy barrier and limits the overall catalytic rate through a back reaction k2 since it is separated by the highest activation energy barrier and limits the overall catalytic rate by producing product O k1 since it is separated by the highest activation energy barrier and limits the overall catalytic rate since it forms ES
