उत्तर
Given: T1 = 293 K
T2 = 313 K
k2 = 4 × k1
R = 8.314 × 10−3 kJ K−1 mol−1
According to the Arrhenius equation,
`log_10 k_2/k_1 = E_a/(2.303 R) [1/T_1 - 1/T_2]`
⇒ `log_10 (4 xx k_1)/k_1 = E_a/(2.303 xx 8.314 xx 10^-3) xx [1/293 - 1/313]`
⇒ log10 (4) = `E_a/0.0191 xx (313 - 293)/(293 xx 313)`
⇒ 0.6021 = `E_a/0.0191 xx 20/(293 xx 313)`
⇒ Ea = `(0.6021 xx 0.0191 xx 293 xx 313)/20`
= `1054.66/20`
= 52.73 kJ mol−1
