This video goes in depth about the reactions in chemical equilibrium. Chemical equilibrium is a state in a chemical reaction in which the rate of formation of products is equal to the rate of formation of reactants. Vmax, activation energy, and Km are all explained thoroughly. Sal from KhanAcademy also explains the graph of the energy of a chemical reaction. You can fully understand what each curve represents and how they can be changed (how activation energy might be lowered). He explains how and what a cell might do to reach that chemical equilibrium. The potential energy that may allow an object to move is also described. He gives similar analogies as a ball at the bottom and top of a hill, that will help you remember and understand the concepts of exergonic/endergonic reactions. I found this video very helpful in understanding exergonic and endergonic reactions!
