प्रश्न
Explain how and why will the rate of reaction for a given reaction be affected when the temperature at which the reaction was taking place is decreased.

उत्तर
The rate of reaction will decrease. At lower temperatures, the kinetic energy of molecules decreases thereby the collisions decrease resulting in a lowering of the rate of reaction.

(b) Rate constant ‘k’ of a reaction varies with temperature ‘T’ according to the equation:
`logk=logA-E_a/2.303R(1/T)`
Where Ea is the activation energy. When a graph is plotted for `logk Vs. 1/T` a straight line with a slope of −4250 K is obtained. Calculate ‘Ea’ for the reaction.(R = 8.314 JK−1 mol−1)
What will be the effect of temperature on rate constant?
Consider a certain reaction \[\ce{A -> Products}\] with k = 2.0 × 10−2 s−1. Calculate the concentration of A remaining after 100 s if the initial concentration of A is 1.0 mol L−1.

The rate constant for a reaction is 1.5 × 10–7 sec–1 at 50°C. What is the value of activation energy?
A schematic plot of ln Keq versus inverse of temperature for a reaction is shown below

It is generally observed that the rate of a chemical reaction becomes double with every 10°C rise in temperature. If the generalisation holds true for a reaction in the temperature range of 298 K to 308 K, what would be the value of activation energy (Ea) for the reaction?
Activation energy of any chemical reactions can be calculated if one knows the value of:
