Answer:

The energy required to begin a reaction is known as activation energy. The most common form of activation energy is going to be heat.

Explanation:The energy required is called the activation energy. The minimum amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction is given by the formula Ea=-RT*ln(k/A). R is the universal gas constant, T is temperature in Kelvin, k is the reaction rate coefficient and A is the frequency factor.
