Answer:

Explanation:

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required by the reactant molecules to undergo a chemical reaction. ... But when we add a catalyst into the reaction then there will be a decrease in activation energy and as a result, molecules will lesser amount of energy are able to participate in the reaction.

Answer:

B. It is the energy required to form the products

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum energy required to start a chemical reaction. The lower the activation energy the easier it is to start a reaction and vice versa. A catalyst lowers the activation energy or the minimum barrier required to start a reaction. Thus activation energy is the minimum energy required to chemically convert reactants to products.
