Answer:
Transition state intermediates have higher energy than the reactants or product because c the chemical bonds of the reactant have been stretched and stressed to near breaking.
Explanation:
Transition state occur during the continuation of a chemical reaction.During transition state reactant is not completely broken or the product is not completely formed.
Transition state contain high energy that"s why it is highly unstable.Transition state persist during a chemical reaction for fractions of a second, that"s why transition state has no practical existence.
