उत्तर
Activation energy of a chemical reaction can be determined by determining the rate constants at two temperatures.
Explanation:
`log k_2/k_1 = E_a/(2.303R)(1/T_1 - 1/T_2)`
Where, Ea = activation energy
T2 = higher temperature
T1 = lower temperature
k1 = rate constant at temperature T1
k2 = rate constant at temperature T2
This equation is known as Arrhenius equation.
