The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will analyze the given equation for the rate constant \( k \) and derive the necessary values step by step. ### Given Equation: \[ \log k \, (\text{min}^{-1}) = 5 - \frac{2000}{T(K)} \] ### Step 1: Identify the Pre-exponential Factor (A) The equation can be compared to the Arrhenius equation in logarithmic form: \[ \log k = \log A - \frac{E_a}{2.303RT} \] From the given equation, we can see that: \[ \log A = 5 \] To find \( A \), we will convert from logarithmic form to exponential form: \[ A = 10^5 \] ### Step 2: Calculate Activation Energy (E_a) From the comparison of the two equations, we can identify that: \[ \frac{E_a}{2.303R} = \frac{2000}{T} \] We can rearrange this to find \( E_a \): \[ E_a = \frac{2000 \cdot 2.303R}{T} \] Since \( R \) (the gas constant) is typically \( 8.314 \, \text{J/(mol K)} \) or \( 2 \, \text{cal/(mol K)} \) when using calories, we will use \( R = 2 \, \text{cal/(mol K)} \) for our calculation. ### Step 3: Substitute R and Simplify Substituting \( R \) into the equation: \[ E_a = \frac{2000 \cdot 2.303 \cdot 2}{T} \] This simplifies to: \[ E_a = \frac{2000 \cdot 4.606}{T} = \frac{9212}{T} \, \text{cal/mol} \] ### Step 4: Convert Activation Energy to Kilocalories To convert \( E_a \) from calories to kilocalories: \[ E_a = \frac{9212 \, \text{cal/mol}}{1000} = 9.212 \, \text{kcal/mol} \] ### Conclusion From the calculations, we conclude: - The pre-exponential factor \( A \) is \( 10^5 \). - The activation energy \( E_a \) is \( 9.212 \, \text{kcal/mol} \). Thus, we can conclude that both options regarding the pre-exponential factor and activation energy are correct.

To solve the problem, we will analyze the given equation for the rate constant \( k \) and derive the necessary values step by step. ### Given Equation: \[ \log k \, (\text{min}^{-1}) = 5 - \frac{2000}{T(K)} \] ### Step 1: Identify the Pre-exponential Factor (A) ...
