Question

Increase in temperature increases the activation energy.

State whether the given statement is true or false.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Change in temperature has no effect on Activation Energy.

The only way to alter the activation energy is by adding catalysts.

Arrhenius equation gives the relation between the rate constant and the temperature.

$K=A{e}^{-Ea/RT}$

K increases on increasing temperature.

Thus, the given statement is false.
