Question

With respect to the figure given below which of the following statements is correct?

• A. $\Delta E$ for the forward reaction is C-B
• B. $\Delta E$ for the forward reaction is B-A
• C. $E_{\left(forward\right)}>E_{\left(backward\right)}$
• D. E (for reverse reaction)$=C-A$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\Delta E$ for the forward reaction is B-A

Option (B) is correct.
$\Delta E=$ Energy of products - energy of reactants.
