For a reaction, activation energy (Ea)=0(E_{a}) = 0and rate constant (k)=3.2×106s−1(k) = 3.2 \times 10^{6}s^{- 1}at 300K. What is the value of the rate constant at 310K.

A

3.2×10−12s−13.2 \times 10^{- 12}s^{- 1}

B

3.2×106s−13.2 \times 10^{6}s^{- 1}

C

6.4×1012s−16.4 \times 10^{12}s^{- 1}

D

6.4×106s−16.4 \times 10^{6}s^{- 1}

Answer

3.2×106s−13.2 \times 10^{6}s^{- 1}

Explanation

Solution

When Ea=0,E_{a} = 0, the rate constant is independent of

temperature so that rate constant (k)=3.2×106sec⁡−1(k) = 3.2 \times 10^{6}\sec^{- 1}{}.
