The activation energy for a reaction at the temperature T K was found to be `2.303RT J mol^(-1)`. The ratio of the rate constant to Arrhenius factor isA. `10^(-1)`B. `10^(-2)`C. `2 xx 10^(-3)`D. `2 xx 10^(-2)` |

Answer» Correct Answer - A a) According to Arrhenius equation, log k = log A`-E/(2.303R) xx 1/T` `2.303 log k = 2.303 log A-(E_(a))/(RT)` Substituting the value of `E_(a)` as 2.303 RT and dividing by 2.303 on both sides, we get. log k`-log A=-1` `log(k/A)=log 10^(-1)` Taking anti log. `(k/A)=10^(-1)` |
