Find out % of reactant molecules crossing over the energy barrier of 325 K given that DH325 = 0.12 KCal& (Ea)b/w = 0.02 Kcal
A
19.38 %
B
80.62 %
C
100 %
D
88 %
Answer
80.62 %
Explanation
Solution
Fraction of reactant molecules capable of crossing energy barrier is given by e-Ea/RT
Now (Ea)f = DH + (Ea)b/w
