In the Arrhenius equation,$k = A e^{-E_a/RT}$,the rate constant $k$ becomes equal to the frequency factor $A$ when:

  • A
    $T = 0$
  • B
    $T = 298 \ K$
  • C
    $T \to \infty$
  • D

The following figure shows a graph of $\log_{10}K$ vs $\frac{1}{T}$,where $K$ is the rate constant and $T$ is the temperature. The straight line $BC$ has a slope,$\tan \theta = -\frac{1}{2.303}$,and an intercept of $5$ on the $Y$-axis. Thus,$E_a$,the energy of activation,is ....... $cal$.

The temperature dependence of the rate constant $k$ is expressed as $k = A e^{-E_a / RT}$. When a plot between $\log k$ and $1/T$ is plotted,we get the graph as shown. What is the value of the slope in the graph?

The decomposition of formic acid on a gold surface follows first-order kinetics. If the rate constant at $300 \ K$ is $1.0 \times 10^{-3} \ s^{-1}$ and the activation energy $E_a = 11.488 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,the rate constant at $200 \ K$ is ............ $\times 10^{-5} \ s^{-1}$.
