State the role of activated complex In a reaction and state its relation with activation energy.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Activated complex is the highest energy unstable intermediate that is formed from the reactants and get decomposed immediately to give the products. It has very short life. In this, bonds of products are not fully formed. Activated complex is formed only if reactants poses activation energy.
