AIPMT MAINS 2010 Chemistry Activation Energy MCQ Question
The figure given below shows the conversion of a substrate into product by an enzyme. In which one of the four options (1–4) the components of reaction labelled as A, B, C and D are identified correctly?

A-Potential energy, B-Transition state, C-Activation energy with enzyme, D-Activation energy without enzyme
A-Transition state, B-Potential energy, C-Activation energy without enzyme, D-Activation energy with enzyme
A-Potential energy, B-Transition state, C-Activation energy with enzyme, D-Activation energy without enzyme
A-Activation energy with enzyme, B-Transition state, C-Activation energy without enzyme, D-Potential energy
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Activation energy is required for overcoming the energy barrier which gets reduced in the presence of enzyme.
