The activation energy for a simple chemical reaction A B is E in forward direction.
The activation energy for reverse reaction
The activation energy for reverse reaction
- Ais negative of E
- Bis always less than E
- Ccan be less than or more than E
- Dis always double of E
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
The energy of activation of reverse reaction is
less than or more than energy of activation E of
forward reaction
Because it depends upon the nature of reaction.
If , reaction is endothermic.
or , reaction is exothermic.
