Identify the incorrect statement from the following options:

Explanation

Option A is correct because the exit age distribution function E and the internal age distribution function I satisfy the relation E = - (dI/dθ). Option B is true since chemisorption techniques are commonly used to determine catalyst surface area and pore size distribution. Option C is accurate because higher temperatures generally favor reactions with larger activation energies. Option D is incorrect as a catalyst actually lowers the potential energy barrier, facilitating the reaction rather than increasing it.
