The activated complex theory, also known as transition state theory, explains the rate of biomolecular reactions by proposing the formation of a high-energy intermediate called the activated complex or transition state. In a reaction, reactant molecules collide with proper orientation and sufficient energy to reach this transient species, which then decomposes into products. The theory relates the reaction
