AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the temperature at which the half-life period of a first-order reaction is 1 minute, given the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Convert Half-Life to Seconds:** The half-life (t₁/₂) is given as 1 minute. We need to convert this into seconds: \[ t_{1/2} = 1 \text{ minute} = 60 \text{ seconds} ...
