Question

match each labeled part of the diagram with what it represents. potential energy a b c e d reaction coordinate a b c d e activation energy change in energy of reaction energy of products energy of reactants total energy of reaction

Explanation:

• A represents the energy of reactants as it is the potential - energy level at the start of the reaction.
• B represents the activation energy which is the energy barrier that needs to be overcome for the reaction to proceed.
• C is the total energy change of the reaction considering the difference between the highest - energy point and the energy of reactants.
• D represents the change in energy of the reaction which is the difference between the energy of reactants and products.
• E represents the energy of products as it is the potential - energy level at the end of the reaction.

Answer:

A. Energy of Reactants
B. Activation Energy
C. Total Energy of Reaction
D. Change in Energy of Reaction
E. Energy of Products
