The rate constant is given by the equation `k = P.Ze^(-E//RT)`. Which factor should register a decrease for the reaction to proceed more rapidly ?

A

T

B

Z

C

E

D

p

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

When k increases, rate of reaction also increases, `k=(pz)/(e^(E//RT))` for k to increase p,z T should increases and E should decreases . (e~~ 2.7)
