What Is activated complex ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

There exists an energy barrier between reactants and products, which must crossed before the reactants are convened into products. This energy barrier corresponds to energy maxima. The arrangement of atoms corresponding to energy maxima (threshold energy) is called transition state or activated complex.
