Question:

The following graph is obtained for a first-order reaction (A → P). The activation energy (E\(_a\) in kJ/mol\(^{-1}\)) and heat of reaction (ΔH in kJ/mol\(^{-1}\)) for this reaction are respectively
first-order reaction

Show Hint

To determine activation energy and heat of reaction from a potential energy diagram, remember that activation energy is the energy barrier, and heat of reaction is the difference in energy between products and reactants.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

From the given graph, we can identify the activation energy (E\(_a\)) as the difference between the energy at the transition state and the energy of the reactants, which is 15 kJ/mol. The heat of reaction (ΔH) is the difference between the energy of the products and reactants, which is 5 kJ/mol. Therefore, the correct answer is option (2).
