The rate of reactions exhibiting negative activation energy

Options

A. Decreases with increasing temperature
B. Increases with increasing temperature
C. Does not depend on temperature
D. Depends on the height of the potential barrier

Answer

A

Explanation

`k=A.e^(-E_(a)//RT)`
If `E_(a)lt0` then on increasing temperature T value of `-E_(a)//RT` will decrease so the value of rate constant K will also decrease .
