TL;DR
I was wondering if the energy level diagram of the below chemical reaction has been derived?

Voltage Applied

4B+2LiNO3+C ------------->B4C+2LiNO2+O2
Hi

For a personal project, has the energy level diagram of the below reaction been derived? Voltage Applied4B+2LiNO3+C ------------->B4C+2LiNO2+O2

Thanks,

What exactly do you mean by “energy level diagram?” Reactants, products, and transition state? Or something else?
 
Hi

Thanks for that.

Reactants,Products and Transition rates.

Thanks.

I don’t know about the transition state, but the enthalpy of reaction can be simplified to finding the heat of formation of boron carbide and adding it to the enthalpy for the disproportionation of lithium nitrate to nitrite.
