For two firstorder reactions having same concentration of `A` and `B` at `t = 0`, use the given data to calculate the tempretature at which both occur with same rate.
Reaction I: `ArarrZ`, `k_(1) = 10^(16)e^((-(3000)/(T)))`
Reaction II: `BrarrY`, `k_(2) = 10^(15) e^((-(2000)/(T)))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`r_(1) = k_(1)[A]`
`r_(2) = k_(2)[B]`
Since `[A] = [B], r_(1) = r_(2)` when `k_(1) = k_(2)` Thus, `10^(16)e^((-(3000)/(T))) = 10^(15)e^((-(2000)/(T)))`
or `16 - (3000)/(T xx 2.303) = 15 - (2000)/(T xx 2.303)`
`1 = (1000)/(T xx 2.303)` or `T = (1000)/(1 xx 2.303) = 434.22 K`

The rate constant for a second order reaction is given by k=(5 times 10^11)e^(-29000k//T) . The value of E_a will be:

The rate of reaction increases isgnificantly with increase in temperature. Generally, rate of reactions are doubled for every 10^(@)C rise in temperature. Temperature coefficient gives us an idea about the change in the rate of a reaction for every 10^(@)C change in temperature. "Temperature coefficient" (mu) = ("Rate constant of" (T + 10)^(@)C)/("Rate constant at" T^(@)C) Arrhenius gave an equation which describes aret constant k as a function of temperature k = Ae^(-E_(a)//RT) where k is the rate constant, A is the frequency factor or pre-exponential factor, E_(a) is the activation energy, T is the temperature in kelvin, R is the universal gas constant. Equation when expressed in logarithmic form becomes log k = log A - (E_(a))/(2.303 RT) For the given reactions, following data is given {:(PrarrQ,,,,k_(1) =10^(15)exp((-2000)/(T))),(CrarrD,,,,k_(2) = 10^(14)exp((-1000)/(T))):} Temperature at which k_(1) = k_(2) is

Which equation is true to calculate the energy of ativation, if the rate of reaction is doubled by increasing temperature from T_(1) K "to" T_(2) K ?
