The activation energy of a reaction is zero. Will the rate constant of the reaction depend upon temperature ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the rate constant of a reaction with zero activation energy depends on temperature, we can analyze the situation using the Arrhenius equation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Arrhenius Equation**: The Arrhenius equation is given by: \[ k = A e^{-\frac{E_a}{RT}} ...
