The half life for a reaction between fixed conecntration of reactants varies with temperature as follows:
`{:(t^(@)C,520,533,555,574),(t_(1//2)sec,1288,813,562,477):}`
Calcutate the activation energy of this reaction.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`86.47KJ^(-1)`

Use: `log((k_(2))/K_(1))=(E)/(2.303R)((1)/(T_(1))-(1)/(T_(2)))`
`k_(2)=0.693//t_(2)`
`k_(1)=0.693//t_(1)`
`:.log((t_(1))/(t_(2)))=(E)/(2.303R)((1)/(T_(1))-(1)/(T_(2)))`

The product of half life T_(1//2) and the square of initial concentration of the reactant (a) is constant. Then the order of reaction is

The rate constant 'k'. For a reaction varies with temperature 'T' according to the question. log k = log A-(E_(a))/(2.303R)(1/T) Where E_(a) is the activation energy. When a graph is plotted for log k vs 1//T , a straight line with a slope of -4250 K is obtained. Calcualte E_(a) for this reaction.

Consider the following statements about first order reaction: (1) The rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactant. (2) Its half-life period is always constant. (3) Concentration of reactant falls exponentially. (4) It has low activation energy. Of these statements:
