Express your answer to one significant figure and include the appropriate units. Start - Finish Reaction coordinate

Explanation / Answer

a)

forward direction Ea --> Etop - Ereactatn

Etop(A) = 200 approx

Ereactants(A) = -200

Ea = 200--200= 400 kJ

B)

fowrad direction Ea for B:

Etop B = 300

Ereactants B = -100

Ea forward B = 300 --100 = 400 kJ/mol

C)

reverse reaciton for A:

EA reverse A= Etop - Eproducts = 200- 0= 200 kJ

D)

reverse for B

Ea reverse B = Etop -Eproducts = 300 --200= 500 kJ
