Question

Use the energy diagram pictured below to answer the following questions. Be sure you explain your answers, so that we may all learn from each other. Simply writing an answer as a single word doesn't help your fellow classmates understand why.  

F D Bou3 IA E a. Reaction Progress

1. How many intermediates are formed during the reaction and what letters represent intermediates? How can you recognize an intermediate in a reaction diagram?

2. How many transition states are there in this reaction and what letter are they represented by? How can you recognize a transition state?

3. How many elementary steps are there in this reaction? Explain.

4. Which step (A->C, C->E, E->G) is the slow step in the reaction? Explain.

5. Is this reaction endothermic or exothermic? Explain.
