A reaction proceeds five times more at `60^(@)`C as it does at `30^(@)`C. Estimate energy of activation.
Text Solution
AI Generated Solution
To estimate the energy of activation for the reaction that proceeds five times more at 60°C than at 30°C, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Convert temperatures to Kelvin
We need to convert the given temperatures from Celsius to Kelvin using the formula:
\[ T(K) = T(°C) + 273 \]
- For \( T_1 = 30°C \):
\[ T_1 = 30 + 273 = 303 \, K \]
