(c) Which step is the fastest?

Video transcript

Hello everyone today. We have been given the falling problem. Which step is the slowest? Based on the graph below. So an important trend that we have to note is that the step with the highest activation energy, or E. A. Is the slowest. And so activation energy is simply going to be the energy. So activation energy is the energy from our reactant two, the peak. And so based on this step A. To B has the highest activation energy, the highest E. A. And so therefore will be the slowest step here to here is the activation energy down here represents our reactant and up here represents our peak. And so since that has the highest activation energy, that is the slowest step by definition. And with that we've answered the question overall, I hope this helped and until next time.
