Summary Introduction
Introduction: An input of activation energy is required by many reactions to begin. Both the energy-releasing and energy-requiring reactions have activation energy and the amount of energy varies with the reaction. Energy-requiring reactions absorb the energy and are called uphill run and the energy-releasing reactions release energy.
