Thermodynamic feasibility of the reaction alone cannot decide the rate of the reaction. Explain with the help of one example.

Options

  1. AThermodynamic feasibility is solely responsible for determining the rate of a reaction.
  2. BThe rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the thermodynamic feasibility.
  3. CThermodynamically the conversion of diamond to graphite is highly feasible but this reaction is very slow beca
  4. DThermodynamics and reaction kinetics are unrelated concepts and do not affect each other.

Correct answer

C. Thermodynamically the conversion of diamond to graphite is highly feasible but this reaction is very slow beca

Step-by-step solution

Correct Option is : (C) Thermodynamically the conversion of diamond to graphite is highly feasible but this reaction is very slow because its activation energy is high.
