Chemistry-Activation Energy
NEET Chemistry Activation Energy Assertion Reason Question
Type: Assertion Reason-assertion-Easy-Class 12
Assertion (A): The activation energy of a reaction determines whether a collision between reactant molecules will lead to product formation. | Reason (R): The activation energy is the minimum energy required for a reaction to occur, and it is related to the frequency factor in the Arrhenius equation.
A
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
B
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C
A is true but R is false.
D
A is false.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
The activation energy is the threshold energy that reactants must overcome for a reaction to occur, and it is a key factor in the Arrhenius equation, affecting the reaction rate.
