Potential Energy Diagram Basics (PE Diagrams)

This video introduces you to Potential Energy Diagrams. It shows you how to identify Potential energy of the reactants and products, the activation energy of the forward and reverse reactions, the activated complex and finally the heat of reaction. In addition it shows you how to determine if the diagram is endothermic or exothermic.
