Transition state theory (TST) explains the reaction rates of elementarychemical reactions. The theoryassumes a special type of chemicalequilibrium (quasi-equilibrium) between reactants and activatedtransition state complexes. ... (The ‡notation refers to the value of interest at the transition state.)

___________________________
⚫Transition state theory was given by Henry Eyring of Princeton University.
⚫This theory deals with the formation of intermediate complex on going from reactants to products in a reaction.
⚫According to this theory, a transition state exists between reactants and products in a chemical reaction.
⚫During this transition state, reactants combine to form an intermediate specie (activated complex), whose concentration, rate of formation and decomposition decides whether the reaction will occur or not.
