Chemistry Question on Chemical Kinetics
A→B The rate constants of the above reaction at 200K and 300K are 0.03min−1 and 0.05min−1 respectively The activation energy for the reaction is __J (Nearest integer) (Given :ln10=2.3
R=8.3JK−1mol−1
log5=0.70
log3=0.48
log2=0.30)
Answer
The correct answer is 2520.
logK200K300=2.3×8.314Ea(T11−T21)
log0.030.05=2.305×8.314Ea×[2001−3001]
Ea=2519.88J⇒Ea=2520J
