Correct Answer: D) The activation energy of the forward reaction is E₁ + E₂ and the product is less stable than the reactant.
Concept Explanation
From the graph, E₁ is measured from products to the activated complex and E₂ is the product–reactant energy difference. Thus the forward activation energy is E₁ + E₂, and the higher-energy products are less stable.
