For a particular reaction, the change in enthalpy is 51kjmole and the activation energy is 109kjmole. which of the following could not be the change in enthalpy (δh) and the activation energy (ea), respectively, for the catalyzed reaction? select all that apply.

Answer

given,

change in enthalpy = 51 kJ/mole

change in activation energy = 109 kJ/mole

when a reaction is catalysed change in enthalpy between the product and the reactant does not change it remain constant.

where as activation energy of the product and the reactant decreases.

example:

ΔH = 51 kJ/mole

E_a= 83 kJ/mole

here activation energy decrease whereas change in enthalpy remains same.

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
