Rate constant, k of a reaction varies with temperature as: `log k = Constant- E_a/(2.303RT)` where`E_a` is the activation energy. When a Graph is plotted for log k vs 1/T ,a straight line with a slope of -6670K is obtained. Calculate the energy of activation for this reaction. (`R = 8.314 JK^-1 mol^-1`)
