The energy required for chemical transformations, commonly expressed in kilocalories per mole or kilojoules per mole. Activation energy distributions are used in maturation modeling to calculate the degree of transformation of kerogen in the source rock to oil and gas.<ref name=Petersetal_2012>Peters, Kenneth E., David J.
