To solve the problem, we need to analyze the activation energy (Ea) for both the uncatalyzed and catalyzed reactions, and how they relate to the rate of the reaction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Variables:** - Let \( E_{a1} \) be the activation energy for the uncatalyzed reaction at 400 K. - Let \( E_{a2} \) be the activation energy for the catalyzed reaction at 200 K. - It is given that \( E_{a1} - E_{a2} = 20 \, \text{kJ/mol} \). ...
