The enzymatic reaction has less activation energy because it does not have a transition state. B. The activation energy of the reaction that lacks an enzyme is greater than the reaction that has an enzyme. C. The rate of reaction is greater in the enzymatic reaction. D. The delta G and the entropy of both of the reactions a...
