    | :--- | :--- | :--- |
    | Reactants ($E_R$) | Stable association minimum prior to reaction. | Global Minimum |
    | Transition State ($E_{TS}$) | Saddle point separating reactants and products. | Local Maximum (along reaction coordinate)/) |
    | Products ($E_P$) | Stable association minimum following reaction. | Local Minimum |
    | Activation Energy ($\Delta E^{\ddagger}$) | Energy barrier required for reaction progression. | $E{TS} - ER$ |
