A reaction has a high activation energy. What does this tell you about the reaction?
The reaction transfers a large amount of energy to the surroundings
The reaction takes in a large amount of energy from the surroundings
The products of the reaction store much more energy than the reactants
Colliding particles need a lot of energy before they are able to react
