The energy of activations for forward and backward change for an endothermic reaction, `X rarr Y` are `E_(f)` and `E_(b)` respectively. Which of the following is correct ?

A

`E_(b) lt E_(f)`

B

`E_(b) gt E_(f)`

C

`E_(b) = E_(f)`

D

there is no definite relation between `E_(b) and E_(f)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For an endothermic reaction `E_(P) gt E_(R)`

Here `E_(b) lt E_(f)`

A colliison between reactant molecules must occur with a certain minimum energy before it is effective in yielding Product molecules. This minimum energy is called activation energy E_(a) Large the value of activation energy, smaller the value of rate constant k . Larger is the value of activation energy, greater is the effect of temperature rise on rate constant k . E_(f) = Activation energy of forward reaction E_(b) = Activation energy of backward reaction Delta H = E_(f) - E_(b) E_(f) = threshold energy The activation eneries for forward and backward reactions in a chemical reaction are 30.5 and 45.4 kJ mol^(-1) respectively. The reaction is
