For an exothermic chemical process ocuuring in two process occuring in two steps as follows
`(i)A+BtoX("slow")" "(ii)XtoAB("fast")`
The progress of reaction can be best described by :

A

B

C

D

All are correct

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The reaction occurring in two steps has two activation energy peacks.
The first step, being fast needs less activation energy. The second step, being slow, needs more activition energy. Therefore, second peak will be higher than the first.
