Post by: livestrong136 on Mar 4, 2013
1. The progress of a reaction from reactants to products is shown in the following diagram:

(a) Which curve (A or B) represents the catalyzed reaction?
(b) How many elementary steps are in the catalyzed reaction?
(c) How many elementary steps are in the uncatalyzed reaction?
(d) What is the activation energy Ea of the uncatalyzed reaction? (to the nearest kJ)
(e) What is the activation energy of the catalyzed reaction? (to the nearest kJ)
(f) What is ∆H for the reaction? (to the nearest kJ)
(g) What is the activation energy of the reverse uncatalyzed reaction? (to the nearest kJ)
