Question

The following reaction profile is for a reaction at 380 K that occurs at constant pressure.

The Hrxn for the reaction = -96.0 kJ/mol
The Ea for the reverse reaction = 140.0 kJ/mol

Label each of the following parts of the reaction profile (a-d) by matching the names to the regions below:




What is the Ea for the forward reaction?
How many steps are involved in this reaction? Answer with a number not a word.

region a - Ea for the forward reaction The H for the reaction The intermediate The transition state The G of the reaction. Ea for the reverse reaction region c - Ea for the forward reaction The H for the reaction The intermediate The transition state The G of the reaction. Ea for the reverse reaction region b - Ea for the forward reaction The H for the reaction The intermediate The transition state The G of the reaction. Ea for the reverse reaction region d - Ea for the forward reaction The H for the reaction The intermediate The transition state The G of the reaction. Ea for the reverse reaction

Explanation / Answer

region a =  - Ea for the forward reaction

region c = Ea for the reverse reaction

region b = The transition state

region d = The G of the reaction

Ea for the forward reaction = 140 kJ/mol-dG
