4

Which description explains the role of activation energy in a chemical reaction?

A
It provides useful energy that is released in an exothermic reaction.
B
It stops the products from being formed from the intermediate state.
C
It slows down the overall chemical reaction so it does not happen too quickly.
D
It provides reactants with sufficient energy for bonds to break and reform.
5
