The rate constant (k) of a reaction is measured at different temperature (T), and the data are plotted in the given figure. the activation energy of the reaction in kJmol-1 is : (R is gas constant)

  1. 2/R
  2. 1/R
  3. R
  4. 2R

Solution

k=Ae-Ea/RT
In k=InAEaR1T

In k=InAEaR×103103T

Slope of graph 

=EaR×103=105

Ea=2R×103J

Ea=2R×kJ
