Question

Answerunk catalyzed reactie reactants uncatalyzed roaction activo energy Rection

Answer 1

this is a reaction kinetics graph. in this graph we see two different colours . red colours show high energy and blue colour show low energy. so the blue colour uses less energy than the red one and it shown the kinetics of catalyzed reaction. the red one is uncatalysed reaction. the graph starts from a certain energy level and end at a certain energy level. the starting point named as energy of reactant and the finish point named as product. the logic behind of choosing the name is the free enegy change which becomes negative if we substract higher from lower. also it is assumed that the product will form from the reactant so the higher in energy must be reactant and lower in energy must be product. now the difference between reactant energy level and higher energy state is called activation energy as the graph makes a peak from reactant and go down towards the product.
