What is it called when energy is required to start a chemical reaction?

An exergonic reaction is activation energy (or energy of activation). An endergonic reaction is essentially the opposite of an exergonic reaction.


What does the activation energy for a reaction represent?

Activation energy is the amount of energy needed to start a reaction.


Is activation energy added or just there?

Activation energy is the amount of energy that should be gained by potential reactants, for a reaction to occur. A reaction can be occurred by reducing the activation energy of the reaction or increasing the activation energy of the reactants. Activation energy should be added.


When is activation energy the same for forward and reverse reactions?

the activation energy of a reversible reaction is not thesame for the foreward and backward reactios


What it the term used to describe the energy needed to get a reaction started?

The energy needed to get a reaction started is called activation energy.


What is activation energy How does a catalyst affect activation energy?

Activation energy is the energy required by a reaction for the reaction to occur. The catalyst lowers the activation energy, making it easier for the reaction to happen.Improvement:A catalyst don't lowers the activation energy. A catalyst creates a alternative route (*) for the same reaction with a lower activation energy.* = as a result of the interaction of the reagents with the catalyst.


What does an enzyme do to the activation energy needed to start a chemical reaction?

Enzymes are catalysts, they reduce the activation energy.


Energy is the energy needed to start a chemical reaction?

The energy needed to statr a chemical reaction is the 'Activation Energy' , which is given the symbol (Ea).


How does activation energy effect the progress of a reaction?

The reaction will not occur unless the activation energy is met.


How does activation energy affect the progress affect the progress of a reaction?

The reaction will not occur unless the activation energy is met.


How does activation energy affect the length of a reaction?

as activation energy decreases, reaction will finish faster (length of reaction decreases)


What does a enzyme do A Adds heat to a reaction speeding it up B Lowers the activation energy of a reaction C Cools a reaction slowing it down D Raises the activation energy of reaction?

B Lowers activation energy of a reaction
