The gas-phase reaction CH3NC → CH3CN has been studied in a closed vessel, and the rate equation was found to be: Rate = -Δ[CH3NC]/Δt = k[CH3NC]. Which one of the following actions is least likely to cause a change in the rate of the reaction?
A) lowering the temperature
B) adding a catalyst
C) using a larger initial amount of CH3NC in the same vessel
D) using a bigger vessel, but the same initial amount of CH3NC
E) continuously removing CH3CN as it is formed
