If a reaction A+B->C,is exothermic to the extent of 30kJ/mol and the forward reaction has an activation energy is 249kJ/mol,the activation energy for reverse reaction in kJ/mol=?

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

it will be some of those two right :)

OpenStudy (dls):

i thought that too..279 but its wrong

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

yaaa activation energy will be same i think it wont related to exo or endo :)

OpenStudy (dls):

answer is 100

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

LOL :) let me think over it

OpenStudy (dls):

what is 30 kJ here?

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

its just heat released from that reaction :) delta H

OpenStudy (dls):

so how 100..

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Activation_energy.svg try to find things from this :)

OpenStudy (dls):

cant figure out how to get 100
