Chemistry · NEET · NTA ExamsChemical Kinetics

The energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions for \(A_{2}+B_{2} \rightleftharpoons 2 A B\) are 180 kJ mol-1 and 200 kJ mol-1 respectively.  The presence of a catalyst lowers the activation energy of both (forward and reverse) reactions by 100 kJ mol-1.  The enthalpy change of the reaction (A2 + B2 → 2 AB) in the presence of catalyst will be (in kJ mol-1):
  1. 300
  2. 120
  3. 280
  4. 20

Answer

(D) 20
