Hi mam,

I wanted to ask why can't option A be the one with the highest activation energyScreenshot 2026-04-16 132938.png

the question asks

which activation pathway shows the graph with the highest activation energy and that is endothermic

i think i got why A isn't the answer, its because that is exothermic right?
