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

A

`DeltaS=0`

B

`DeltaG=0`

C

`DeltaH=0`

D

`DeltaH=DeltaG=DeltaV=0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Energy profile diagram for a reaction is as

From the figure, it is clear that
[Here `(E_(a))_(b)` =activation energy of backward reaction and `(E_(a))_(f)` =activation energy of forward reaction].
If `(E_(a))_(b)=(E_(a))_(f)`
then `DeltaH=0`
