The $\Delta H$ value of the reaction $H_2 + Cl_2 \rightleftharpoons 2HCl$ is $-44.12 \ kcal$. If $E_1$ is the activation energy of the backward reaction and $E_2$ is the activation energy of the forward reaction,then for the above reaction:

  • A
    $E_1 > E_2$
  • B
    $E_1 < E_2$
  • C
    $E_1 = E_2$
  • D
    $\Delta H$ is not related to $E_1$ and $E_2$
