Question

Chemical reactions are more likely to happen when _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

Chemical reactions are more likely to happen when electrons are in an excited state.

Explanation:

    A chemical reaction occurs when certain substances undergo changes from their initial state (reagents), resulting in one or more products. For this to happen, the bonds between atoms and molecules must be broken and must be reestablished in another way. Because these bonds can be very strong, heat energy is usually required to initiate the reaction.

    The activation energy acts as a kind of barrier for the reaction to occur, because the larger it is, the harder it will be for the reaction to occur. In some cases, power must be supplied to the reagents.

Answer 2

Chemical reactions are more likely to happen when electrons are in the lowest possible energy level because the lower energy level then possibilty of it chemical reaction.
