The rate of a chemical reaction doubles with every $10^{\circ}C$ rise in temperature. If the reaction is carried out in the vicinity of $22^{\circ}C$,the activation energy of the reaction is (Given $R = 8.3 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1}$,$\ln 2 = 0.69$ and $\ln 3 = 1.1$)

  • A
    $1.69 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
  • B
    $0.169 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
  • C
    $49.8 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
  • D
    $498 \ J \ mol^{-1}$

View Solution

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: $A$ reaction can have zero activation energy.
Reason $R$: The minimum extra amount of energy absorbed by reactant molecules so that their energy becomes equal to threshold value,is called activation energy.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:
