Given information

We are provided with a reaction whose activation energy is zero in the gas phase and we need to give the other types of reactions would you expect to have little or no activation energy.

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

The activation energy of the reaction is zero means that the rate of reaction, when activation energy is zero will have a value equal to the value of the collision frequency, not temperature.

The activation energy ( ) is an energy barrier or hump that must be surmounted for the reactants to be transformed into products.
