The rate of a reaction qudruples when the temperature changes from 293 K to 313 K.Calculation the energy of activation of the reaction assuming that it does not change with temperature.

Answer»

SOLUTION :`T-(1)`=293 K
rate=`r_(1)`
means `k_(1)` and
`E_(a)`=(?)
`T_(2)`=313K
rate =`r_(2)=4r_(1)`
`k_(2)=4k_(1)`
log `(K_(2))/(k_(1))`=log `(4k_(1))/(k_(1))` =log 4
log `(k_(2))/(k_(1))=(E_(a))/(2.303xx8.314)((313-293)/(313xx293))`
`therefore 0.6021=(E_(a))/(2.303xx8.314)((20)/(313xx293))`
`therefore E_(a)=(0.6021xx2.303xx8.314xx313xx293)/(20)`
