Plots showing the variation of the rate ...

Plots showing the variation of the rate constant `(k)` with temperature `(T)` are given below. The plot that follows the Arrhenius equation is

A

B

C

D

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`k=Ae^(-Ea//RT)=A/(""_eE_a//RT)` Thus, as T decreases, the exponential factor in the denominator decreases or `Ad^(-E_(a)//RT)` increases. Hence, k increases explonentially as T increases.
