Rate of a reaction can be expressed by A...

Rate of a reaction can be expressed by Arrhenius equation as:
`k = Ae^(-E_(a)//RT)`
In this equation, `E_(a)` represents:

A

the energy above which all the colliding molecules will react

B

the energy below which colliding molecules will not react

C

the total energy of the reacting molecules at a temperature, T

D

the fraction of molecules with energy greater than the activation energy of the reaction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
