The minimum amount of energy that has to be added to start a reaction is the activation energy, which starts the reaction. It activates it.
Answer:
Equation 1 - nuclear fission
Equation 2 - nuclear fusion
Explanation:
Nuclear fission is a reaction in which a large nucleus is split into smaller nuclei when it is bombarded by neutrons. The process produces more neutrons to continue the chain reaction. This is clearly depicted in equation 1 as shown in the question.
Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two light nuclei combine in order to form a larger nuclei. This is clearly depicted in equation 2 as shown in the question.

Answer:
2.53 L is the volume of H₂ needed
Explanation:
The reaction is: C₁₈H₃₀O₂ + 3H₂ → C₁₈H₃₆O₂
By the way we can say, that 1 mol of linolenic acid reacts with 3 moles of oxygen in order to produce, 1 mol of stearic acid.
By stoichiometry, ratio is 1:3
Let's convert the mass of the linolenic acid to moles:
10.5 g . 1 mol / 278.42 g = 0.0377 moles
We apply a rule of three:
1 mol of linolenic acid needs 3 moles of H₂ to react
Then, 0.0377 moles will react with (0.0377 . 3 )/1 = 0.113 moles of hydrogen
We apply the Ideal Gases Law to find out the volume (condition of measure are STP) → P . V = n . R . T → V = ( n . R .T ) / P
V = (0.113 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273.15K) 1 atm = 2.53 L
