Neet Solved Paper 2013 Question 5
Question: A reaction having equal energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions has
Options:
A) $ \Delta S=0 $
B) $ \Delta G=0 $
C) $ \Delta H=0 $
D) $ \Delta H=\Delta G=\Delta S=0 $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- A reaction having equal energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions has $ \Delta H=0 $. The enthalpy change for a reaction is the difference in the energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions. When energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions are equal, the difference is zero.
