Question
Consider an endothermic reaction, X → Y with the activation energies Eb and Ef for the backward and forward reactions, respectively. In general
Options
A.Eb < Ef
B.Eb > Ef
C.Eb = Ef
D.There is no definite relation between Eb and Ef
Solution
ᐃH = Ef - Eb
For ᐃH = Positive, Eb < Ef
For ᐃH = Positive, Eb < Ef
