When you strike a match, you produce frictional heat energy. What does this input of energy represent in a chemical reaction?


A.the energy of the reactants

B.the energy of the products

c.the energy of activated complex

d.the energy of activation

Verified Answer :

The correct answer is D.  The energy needed for a chemical reaction is
called the activation energy. This energy is to be present in order for the
reaction to happen. This can be achieved by supplying or releasing heat from a
system of reactants. This can achieved faster by using a catalyst.
