The reaction O3 + NO → O2 + NO2 has Ea = 10.7 kJ/mole and ΔH = – 199.8 kJ/mole. What is the activation energy for the following reaction? O2 + NO2 → O3 + NO

Ea = 210.5kJ/mole

Explanation:

When the reaction:

O3 + NO → O2 + NO2

Occurs, requires 10.7kJ/mole and releases -199.8kJ/mole.

For the forward reaction:

O2 + NO2 → O3 + NO

The Ea is the sum of Ea of the forward reaction and - ΔH, that is:

Ea = Ea - (-ΔH)

Ea = 10.7kJ/mol - (-199.8kJ/mol)

Ea = 210.5kJ/mole
