Figure 1: Reaction Coordinate Diagram: Starting material or reactant A convert to product C via the transition state B, with the help of activation energy ΔG ≠, after which chemical energy ΔG° is released. Qualitatively, the reaction coordinate diagrams (one-dimensional energy surfaces) have numerous applications.
The energy serves as a threshold that reactant molecules must surpass to overcome the energy barrier and transition into the activated complex. Endothermic reactions absorb energy from the surroundings, while exothermic reactions release energy. Some reactions occur spontaneously, while others necessitate an external energy input.
A simple flowchart representing a process for dealing with a non-functioning lamp.. A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process.A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task.
A process flow diagram (PFD) is a diagram commonly used in chemical and process engineering to indicate the general flow of plant processes and equipment. The PFD displays the relationship between major equipment of a plant facility and does not show minor details such as piping details and designations.
Flow diagram is a diagram representing a flow or set of dynamic relationships in a system. The term flow diagram is also used as a synonym for flowchart, [1] and sometimes as a counterpart of the flowchart. [2] Flow diagrams are used to structure and order a complex system, or to reveal the underlying structure of the elements and their ...
Jablonski diagram including vibrational levels for absorbance, non-radiative decay, and fluorescence. When a molecule absorbs a photon, the photon energy is converted and increases the molecule's internal energy level. Likewise, when an excited molecule releases energy, it can do so in the form of a photon.
Diagram of a catalytic reaction, showing the energy level as a function of the reaction coordinate. For a catalyzed reaction, the activation energy is lower.. In chemistry, a reaction coordinate [1] is an abstract one-dimensional coordinate chosen to represent progress along a reaction pathway.
Generic potential energy diagram showing the effect of a catalyst in a hypothetical endothermic chemical reaction. The presence of the catalyst opens a new reaction pathway (shown in red) with a lower activation energy. The final result and the overall thermodynamics are the same.
