Solution

$l o g (2.418 \times 10^{- 5}) = l o g A - \frac{179.9 \times 1000}{2.303 \times 8.314 \times 546}$

$l o g (2.418 \times 10^{- 5}) + \frac{179.9 \times 1000}{2.303 \times 8.314 \times 546} = l o g A$

$- 4.616 + 17.208 = l o g A$

$A = 3.90 \times 10^{12} s^{- 1}$

$l o g (2.418 \times 10^{- 5}) = l o g A - \frac{179.9 \times 1000}{2.303 \times 8.314 \times 546}$

$l o g (2.418 \times 10^{- 5}) + \frac{179.9 \times 1000}{2.303 \times 8.314 \times 546} = l o g A$

$- 4.616 + 17.208 = l o g A$

$A = 3.90 \times 10^{12} s^{- 1}$
