  • A
    $k = e^{-E_a/RT}$
  • B
    $k = E_a/RT$
  • C
    $k = \log_e \frac{E_a}{RT}$
  • D

For $N_2 + 3H_2 \rightarrow 2NH_3$,$\Delta H = -22 \ kcal$,and $E_a = 70 \ kcal$. Hence $E_a$ for $2NH_3 \rightarrow N_2 + 3H_2$ is $.....$ $kcal$.

The rate constant is doubled when temperature increases from $27^{\circ} C$ to $37^{\circ} C$. What is the activation energy in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$?

Write the Arrhenius equation in the form $ln \, k = -\frac{E_a}{RT} + ln \, A$.

The activation energy of a first-order reaction at $25\,^{\circ}C$ is $30\,kJ/mol$. In the presence of a catalyst,the activation energy of the same reaction at $25\,^{\circ}C$ becomes $24\,kJ/mol$. The rate of the reaction in the presence of the catalyst will be how many times the original rate?

The number of correct statement/s from the following is:
$A.$ Larger the activation energy,smaller is the value of the rate constant.
$B.$ The higher is the activation energy,higher is the value of the temperature coefficient.
$C.$ At lower temperatures,the increase in temperature causes a larger change in the value of $k$ than at higher temperatures.
$D.$ $A$ plot of $\ln k$ vs $\frac{1}{T}$ is a straight line with a slope equal to $-\frac{E_a}{R}$.
