The following graphs with the solid and dotted lines correspond to the reactions without and with enzyme, respectively. Which of the following graph(s) correctly represent the concept of activation energy ?(A) (i) only (B) (iii) and (iv) (C) (ii) only (D) (i) and (ii) |
|
Answer» Correct option (D) (i) and (ii) Explanation: The activation enerfy of a chemical reaction is closely related to its rate. Specifically, the higher the activation energy, the slower the chemical reaction will be.
