28. (a) The reaction is assumed to be adiabatic, and at the same time, the avoided crossing energy is assumed to be small enough for the intersection of the two diabatic curves to give the activation energy with a reasonable accuracy,
29. (b) Since the reactions we discuss occur in solution, the small difference between free energy and free enthalpy may be neglected.
