Question: For the single step reaction: A + B 2 C + 2 5 k J If the activation energy for this reaction is 3 5

For the single step reaction:
A+B2C+25kJ
If the activation energy for this reaction is 35.8kJ, sketch an energy vs. reaction co-ordinate diagram for
this reaction. Be sure to label the following on your diagram: each of the axes, reactant compounds
and product compounds, enthalpy of reaction, activation energy of the forward reaction with the
correct value, activation energy of the backwards reaction with the correct value and the transition
state. (8 marks)
On the same sketch you drew, after the addition of a homogeneous catalyst, show how it would change
the graph. Label any new line "catalyst" and label any new activation energy. (2 marks) Draw the diagram do not simply explain how to draw them.
