Chemistry Question on Thermodynamics
A reaction having equal energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions has :-
A
ΔH=ΔG=ΔS=0
B
ΔS=0
C
ΔG=0
D
ΔH=0
Answer
ΔH=0
Explanation
Solution
ΔH=(Ea)f−(Ea)b
Given (Ea)f−(Ea)b
∴ΔH=0
A reaction having equal energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions has :-
ΔH=ΔG=ΔS=0
ΔS=0
ΔG=0
ΔH=0
ΔH=0
ΔH=(Ea)f−(Ea)b
Given (Ea)f−(Ea)b
∴ΔH=0
