If kB is Boltzmann constant and h is Plank’s constant, the rate of decomposition of complex formed during product formation, as given by Transition state theory is ____(a) \(\frac{k_B T}{h} \)(b) \(\frac{k_B h}{T} \)(c) \(\frac{k_B T}{2h} \)(d) \(\frac{k_B T^2}{h} \)The question was asked in class test.My question comes from Kinetics of Homogeneous Reactions in division Kinetics of Homogeneous Reactions of Chemical Reaction Engineering

Answer»

Correct choice is (a) \(\frac{k_B T}{h} \)

To ELABORATE: The rate of DECOMPOSITION of the complex is the same for all reactions. Decomposition rate is GIVEN as, R = \(\frac{k_B T}{h} \).
