When the activation energy of an exothermic reaction decreases at a given temperature, the reaction rate increases because the number of successful effective collisions is higher. More of the reactants collide and are able to form products. Hope this answers the question. have a nice day.

Explanation:

A carbon-12 atom has a mass defect of 0.09564 amu. What is its nuclear binding energy? Round to 3 significant figures. x 10 J per carbon-12 atom

First use the formula;

1 amu =934 MeV

therefore 0.09564 will have

934 x 934

= 89.3 MeV
