Question
Part A In which circumstance is the transition state more similar to the products of the reaction? In which circumstance is the transition state more similar to the products of the reaction? an endergonic reaction a reaction where the reactants and products have similar free energies an exergonic reaction All of the above choices are correct. Part A In which circumstance is the transition state more similar to the products of the reaction? an endergonic reaction a reaction where the reactants and products have similar free energies an exergonic reaction All of the above choices are correct.Explanation / Answer
According to Hammond-Leffler postulates, a transition state that is more similar to the products of the reaction is called as late transition and late transition occurs in the case of endothermic reactions.
Thus, the correct option is "an endergonic reaction".
