B) quickly the substrates are converted to product

The chemical rate in a reaction is the measure of the speed of the colisions between the reactants atoms. The speed of the colision it's also the rate in which the substrates become products.

The activation energy has nothing to do with the rate of the reaction. It only considers the substance changes.
