Reverse Activation Energy From An Energy Profile
The energy profile for a three-step reaction mechanism indicates transition state energies of 85, 60, and 75 kJ/mol and intermediate energies of 30 and 45 kJ/mol, all relative to the reactants. If the final products have an energy of 20 kJ/mol, what is the activation energy for the reverse of the overall reaction?
A
85 kJ/mol
B
40 kJ/mol
C
55 kJ/mol
D
65 kJ/mol
