Which of the following is definitely true, if for a reaction activation energies of forward and backward reactions are equal?
Options
- AΔH = 0
- BΔG = 0
- CThere is no catalyst
- DThe order is zero
Correct answer
A. ΔH = 0
Step-by-step solution
We know that ∆ H = E a forward - E a backward If the activation energies of both forward and backward reactions are the same, then ∆ H = 0 . We can't comment anything about ∆ G , catalyst or order of reaction till we have any other supporting data.
