Chapter 14, Problem 14.27QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Activation energy and what role does activation energy plays in chemical kinetics have to be defined and explained.

Concept introduction:

Activation energy: The minimum energy required for the collision to be effective for the colliding molecules is said to be activation energy.  Activation energy plays an important role in chemical kinetics. It was introduced by Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius in 1889.
