प्रश्न
What happens to the rate constant k and activation energy Ea as the temperature of a chemical reaction is increased? Justify.

उत्तर
As the temperature of a chemical reaction rises, the rate constant k rises and the activation energy Ea falls.
According to Arrhenius equation
k = `"Ae"^(-"E"_"a"//"RT")`
As a result, the rate constant k rises exponentially as the temperature rises.
