Catalyst Effect on Reaction Energy Profile
The reaction energy profile for the decomposition of N2O5 shows an activation energy of 103 kJ/mol and ΔH = -57 kJ/mol. If a catalyst reduces the activation energy to 62 kJ/mol, what would the new reaction energy profile show?
A
Same transition state energy; lower product energy
B
Lower transition state energy; ΔH = -98 kJ/mol
C
Lower transition state energy; ΔH unchanged at -57 kJ/mol
D
Higher reactant energy; ΔH unchanged at -57 kJ/mol
