Questions and Answers

What is the primary purpose of activation energy in a chemical reaction?

To increase the temperature of the reactants

To provide enough energy to break chemical bonds and start the reaction (correct)

To act as an inhibitor and slow down the reaction

To increase the surface area of the reactants

How does the activation energy level relate to the overall energy change of a reaction?

The activation energy level is equal to the overall energy change

The activation energy level must be higher than the overall energy change

The activation energy level is independent of the overall energy change

The activation energy level must be lower than the overall energy change (correct)

In an exothermic reaction, what is the relationship between the activation energy and the energy released by the reaction?

The activation energy is unrelated to the energy released

The activation energy is less than the energy released (correct)

The activation energy is equal to the energy released

The activation energy is greater than the energy released
