In Arrhenius equation k = Ae^(-E(a)//RT)...

In Arrhenius equation `k = Ae^(-E_(a)//RT))`, A is the value of the rate constant

A

when `E_(a)gtRT`

B

`at 0^(@)C`

C

at absolute zero `(0K)`

D

when the temperature is infinite

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
In Arrhenius equation, `k=A` , when `e^(-E_(a)//RT)=1` . This happenes only when `E_(a)//RT=0` which is possible if either `E_(a)=0` or `T` is infinite.
