If the activation energy required for a chemical reaction were reduced, what would happen to the rate of the reaction?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:

Reactions require an input of energy to initiate the reaction; this is called the activation energy (EA).

Activation energy is the amount of energy required to reach the transition state.

The source of the activation energy needed to push reactions forward is typically heat energy from the surroundings.

For cellular reactions to occur fast enough over short time scales, their activation energies are lowered by molecules called catalysts.

Enzymes are catalysts

In the large rainfall is some water remains in the top of the soil the rest of this water is seeped into the ground.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Mainly the absorption of water by the ground depends upon the nature and the fertility of the soil.
When the ground receives the water it mainly accounts for the absorption and then there will be a runoff. The absorption helps to raise the level of groundwater for future usage.
The amount of water that can get into the soil mainly depends upon the permeability of the soil surface. The water which can't infiltrate in the soil runs off into the water bodies.
The water is an essential requirement for survival and the existence of biological organisms.
