A reaction having equal energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions has

A

`Delta G = 0`

B

`Delta H = 0`

C

`Delta H=Delta G=Delta S=0`

D

`Delta S = 0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
For a reaction, we have `DeltaH=(E_(a))_("forward")-(E_(a))_("backward")`
if `(E_(a))forward=(E_(a))_("backward")` , then `DeltaH=0`
