The diagram illustrates a Boltzmann distribution for the molecular energies in a gaseous mixture. The distribution has a maximum, marked $P$ on the diagram. What occurs when the temperature of the mixture rises?
- AThe height of the peak, $P$, decreases and the activation energy moves to the left.
- BThe height of the peak, $P$, decreases and the activation energy moves to the right.
- CThe height of the peak, $P$, decreases and the activation energy does not change.
- DThe height of the peak, $P$, increases and the activation energy moves to the left.
