For a reversible reaction \(\quad A \rightleftharpoons B\), which one of the following statements is wrong from the given energy profile diagram?

  1. A Activation energy of forward reaction is greater than backward reaction
  2. B The forward reaction is endothermic
  3. C The threshold energy is less than that of activation energy
  4. D The energy of activation of forward reaction is equal to the sum of heat of reaction and the energy of activation of backward reaction
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) The threshold energy is less than that of activation energy

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

where, \(E_a=\) activation energy of forward reaction \(E_a^{\prime}=\) activation energy of backward reaction The above energy profile diagram shows that \(E_a>E_a^{\prime} \)The potential energy of the product is greater than that of the reactant, so the reaction is…
