Question

In the respect of the equation $k=A{{e}^{-{{E}_{a}}/RT}}$ in chemical kinetics, which one of the following statements is correct?

A

$k$ is equilibrium constant

B

$A$ is adsorption factor

C

${{E}_{a}}$ is energy of activation

D

$R$ is Rydberg constant

Answer

${{E}_{a}}$ is energy of activation

Explanation

Solution

$k=A\,\,{{e}^{-{{E}_{a}}/RT}}$ $k=$ Rate constant $\Delta =$ Pre-exponential, frequency factor ${{E}_{a}}=$ Activation energy $R=$ Gas constant $T=$ Temperature
