Primes

• Activation Energy
  • Lowering activation energy accelerates systems that are thermodynamically predetermined to proceed anyway.

    This sourceHistorical-conceptual review of transition-state theory across thermodynamic, kinetic-theory, and statistical-mechanical traditions; documents the robustness of the activation-barrier construct. SUPPORTS the claim that Laidler and King trace TST's conceptual development across kinetic and statistical-mechanical traditions.
