Primes¶
- Activation Energy
- A core function of "activation energy", as Laidler (1987) emphasizes throughout his canonical chemical-kinetics text, is to distinguish between thermodynamic inevitability (a reaction is favorable, an innovation is beneficial, a social change is desirable) and kinetic feasibility (it happens at an observable speed in a usable timeframe).
This sourceHarper & Row. Standard chemical-kinetics textbook: develops the canonical distinction between thermodynamic favorability (ΔG) and kinetic feasibility (Ea). SUPPORTS the clarity-section claim that activation energy distinguishes thermodynamic inevitability from kinetic feasibility.
