The rate constant for a first order reaction at $300\, ^\circ C$ for which $E_a$ is $35\, kcal\, mol^{-1}$ and frequency constant $(A)$ is $1.45 \times 10^{11} s^{-1}$ will be:

Consider the following transformation involving first order elementary reactions in each step at constant temperature as shown below.
$A + B \underset{\text{Step } 3}{\overset{\text{Step } 1}{\rightleftharpoons}} C \xrightarrow{\text{Step } 2} P$
Some details of the above reaction are listed below.
Step Rate constant $(s^{-1})$ Activation energy $(kJ \ mol^{-1})$
$1$ $k_1$ $300$
$2$ $k_2$ $200$
$3$ $k_3$ $Ea_3$

If the overall rate constant of the above transformation $(k)$ is given as $k = \frac{k_1 k_2}{k_3}$ and the overall activation energy $(E_a)$ is $400 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,then the value of $Ea_3$ is $\qquad$ $kJ \ mol^{-1}$ (nearest integer).

The decomposition of ethane,$\frac{d[C_2H_6]}{dt} = k[C_2H_6]$,proceeds through a complex mechanism,which includes $5$ steps. The overall rate constant $(k)$ is expressed as $k = \frac{k_1 k_2 k_3}{k_2 k_5}$,where $k_1, k_2, k_3, k_4, k_5$ are the rate constants of the $5$ steps. If the activation energies of the steps are $E_1 = 1E, E_2 = 2E, E_3 = 3E, E_4 = 4E, E_5 = 5E$,where $E = 20 \ kJ/mol$,find the overall activation energy of the decomposition.
