To find the activation energy (Ea) for the reaction, we can use the Arrhenius equation and the information provided about the change in reaction rate with temperature. Let's break down the solution step by step: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We know that the rate of the reaction increases 4 times when the temperature is raised from 293 K to 313 K. We need to find the activation energy (Ea) for this reaction. ### Step 2: Set Up the Arrhenius Equation The Arrhenius equation relates the rate constant (k) to the temperature (T) and activation energy (Ea): \[ k = A e^{-\frac{E_a}{RT}} \] ...
