The activation energy for a reaction at ...

The activation energy for a reaction at temperature T K was found to be or `2.303 "RT J mol"^(-1)`. The ratio of the rate constant to Arrhenius factor is

A

0.01

B

0.1

C

0.02

D

0.001

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

log K=log `A -(E_(a))/(2.303RT)`
logK-log `A-(E_(a))/(2.303RT)`
log `((K)/(A))=(-2.303RT)/(2.303RT)=-1`
`(k)/(A)="antilog" (-1.0)=1xx10^(-1)=0.1`

The activation energy for a reaction at temperature T K was found to be 2.303" RT J mol"^(-1) . The ratio of the rate constant to Arrhenius factor is

The activation energy for a reaction at the temperature T K was found to be 2.303RT J mol^(-1) . The ratio of the rate constant to Arrhenius factor is

The rate constant , the activation energy and Arrhenius parameter of a chemical reaction at 25^@C are x, 10x kJ/ mol and 2x s^(-1) . Value of rate constant as T rarr oo is

Arrhenius studied the effect of temperature on the rate of a reaction and postulated that rate constant varies with temperture exponentially as K=A.e^(-Ea//RT) . This method is generally used for finding the activation energy of reaction . Keeping temperature constant , effect of catalyst on activation energy has also been studied. If the rate of reaction double for rise of temperature from 500K to 1000K, the activation energy of the reaction will be approximately [ln2=0.7]
