1.	(a) Rate constant of a chemical reaction rises to double by increase in temperature of 10^(@)C. Explain with labelled distribution curve. (b) The rate constant of a first order reaction increases by four times when the temperature changes from 350 K to 400 K. Calculate the energy of activation of the reaction assuming that it does not change with temperature (R=8.314" JK"^(-1)"mol"^(-1),log4=0.6021)
Answer» SOLUTION :`32.27" KJ MOL"^(-1)`
