Solution

The correct option is C A=2.0×103kJmol1Ls1
Now here we are going to use Arrhenius equation for the temperature dependence of a rate constant.
That is K=AeEqRT
Now as T will tend to infinity then eEqRT will tend to zero
so, we can say that K will be almost equal to A.
now matching the units of A accordingly and making KA
we get,
A=2.0×103kJmol1Ls1
