The Equilibrium Constant for Complex Formation Between Molecules a and B

The equilibrium constant for complex formation between molecules A and B will depend on their relative concentrations, as well as the rates at which the molecules associate and dissociate.The association rate will be larger than the dissociation rate when complex formation is favorable.The energy that drives this process is referred to as __________ energy.

A) dissociation
B) association
C) binding
D) releasing
