Question

The temperature dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction can be explained by Arrhenius equation which is

A

$k = Ae^{E_{a}/RT}$

B

$k = Ae^{- E_{a}/RT}$

C

$4.5 \times 10^{11}KJmol^{- 1}$

D

$28000kJmol^{- 1}$

Answer

$k = Ae^{- E_{a}/RT}$

Explanation

Solution

Arrhenius equation can be given as $k = Ae^{- E_{a}/RT}$ where A is the Arrhenius factor or the frequency factor. It is also called pre exponential factor. It is also called pre exponential factor. R is the gas constant and $E_{a}$ is the activation energy.
