Chemical Kinetics Question 54
Question: A chemical reaction is said to take place through the various stages with $ \Delta G{}^\circ $ values indicated by the graph: Progress Stages I and II represent respectively
Options:
A) I II reaction intermediate activated complex
B) activated complex activated complex
C) reaction intermediate reaction intermediate
D) activated complex reaction intermediate
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: A
Solution:
[a] Stage I with minimum value of $ \Delta G^{o} $ is the reaction intermediate. Stage II with a peak represents activated state.
