Reaction Energy Profile Shape

Postby laurence14b2f » Sun Mar 17, 2024 11:34 pm

Hi everyone! How do changes in reaction conditions, such as temperature or pressure, affect the shape of a reaction energy profile? Thank you!!

Increasing the temperature will have a higher energy barrier between reactants and products. More energy will be required to proceed. Pressure on the other hand affects reactions with gasses. More pressure means more collisions due to the tight spaces.
