Q

What is the energy of activation in a chemical reaction? What supplies this energy in the lab or in the cell?

A

molecules frequently don’t reach each other and have to add energy to them to cause a reaction. in the lab, energy is added with heat. in the cell, enzymes supply the energy of activation
