Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The energy needed to start a reaction is called the
A
activation energy
B
starting energy
C
promoting energy
D
reacting energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The minimum amount of energy that is required to start any chemical reaction is called activation energy. This is because some amount of energy is always needed to initiate the reaction whether it is exothermic or endothermic.

Detailed explanation-2: -Activation energy is the minimum energy required to cause a process (such as a chemical reaction) to occur.

Detailed explanation-3: -All chemical reactions, including exothermic reactions, need activation energy to get started. Activation energy is needed so reactants can move together, overcome forces of repulsion, and start breaking bonds. activation energy: Energy needed to start a chemical reaction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of extra energy required by a reacting molecule to get converted into product. It can also be described as the minimum amount of energy needed to activate or energize molecules or atoms so that they can undergo a chemical reaction or transformation.
