An exothermic chemical reaction proceeds by two stages.
Reactants ${ ->[Stage\, 1] }$ Intermediate ${ ->[Stage\, 2] }$ Products The activation energy of state $I$ is $50 \,kJ$ $mol^{-1}$. The overall enthalpy change for the reaction is $-100 \,kJ$ $mol^{-1}$. Which diagram could represent the energy level diagram for the reaction?
