NEET2013ChemistryThermodynamics (C)Actual
Energy of activation of forward reaction for an endothermic process is 50 ~kJ . If enthalpy change for forward reaction is 20 ~kJ then enthalpy change for backward reaction will be
Options
- A30 ~kJ
- B20 ~kJ
- C70 ~kJ
- D50 ~kJ
Correct answer
A. 30 ~kJ
Step-by-step solution
For endothermic reaction, E_ a, b =E_ a, f - H^ =50 ~kJ -20 ~kJ =30 ~kJ
