Answer is: B because it has a lower activation energy.
For all chemical reaction some energy is required and that energy is called activation energy (energy that needs to be absorbed for a chemical reaction to start), activation energy for reaction B is lower that for reaction A.
Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalyst.
Chemical reactions occur faster with a catalyst because they require less activation energy.
