If for two reaction E(a(1)) gt E(a(2)) a...

If for two reaction `E_(a_(1)) gt E_(a_(2))` and `TC_(1)` and `TC_(2)` are temperature coefficient respectively, then which alternative is correct?

A

`TC_(1) gt TC_(2)`

B

`TC_(1) lt TC_(2)`

C

`TC_(1) = TC_(2)`

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
a

Temperature coefficient,
`(K'_(1))/K_(1)=E_(a)/(2.303R)[(T_(2)-T_(1))/(T_(1)T_(2))]`
`:. TC_(1)=E_(a_(1))/(2.303R)[(T_(2)-T_(1))/(T_(1)T_(2))]`
`TC_(2)=E_(a_(2))/(2.303R)[(T_(2)-T_(1))/(T_(1)T_(2))]`
`(TC_(1))/(TC_(2))=E_(a_(1))/E_(a_(2))`
If `E_(a_(1)) gt E_(a_(2))` then `TC_(1) gt TC_(2)`
