• Energy Diagram: A diagram that shows the energy needed, the transition state, the reactants, and the products as a reaction takes place.
• Transition State: Is a state between the reactants and products.
• Activation Energy: The energy required for a chemical reaction to occur. If the activation energy is not reached, no reaction will happen. Also, this is the energy between the reactants and the transition state.
• Reactants:
  • The chemicals you combine
  • What you start with
  • The ingredients
  • Chemicals before the arrow
• Products:
  • The things that are being produced
  • The result of the reaction
  • The chemicals after the arrow
• Reaction Rate: ∆[reactant or product]/∆time
