To find the activation energy (Ea) for the reaction given that the specific rate constant quadruples when the temperature changes from 27°C to 47°C, we can use the Arrhenius equation in the logarithmic form: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given information:** - Initial temperature (T1) = 27°C = 300 K (27 + 273) - Final temperature (T2) = 47°C = 320 K (47 + 273) - The specific rate constant quadruples: K2 = 4K1. ...
