If hydrogen and oxygen are mixed and kept in the same vessel at room temperature the reaction does not take place to form water because
A
Activation energy for the reaction is very high at room
temperature
B
Molecules have no proper orientation to react form water.
C
The frequency of collision is not high enough for the
reaction to take place
D
No catalyst is present in the reaction mixture.
Answer
Activation energy for the reaction is very high at room
temperature
Explanation
Solution
The activation energy for the reaction is very high at room temperature hence reaction will not take place.
