Primes

• Activation Energy
  • They do not change the fundamental desirability of an outcome; they lower the cost of getting there, making it practically achievable.

    This sourceProposes that enzymes accelerate reactions by selectively stabilizing the transition state — the foundational statement that catalysts lower activation energy without altering reactant/product thermodynamics. SUPPORTS the claim that Pauling crystallized transition-state stabilization as the basis of catalysis.
