Question

The rate constant for the first order decomposition of $H_{2} O_{2}$ is given by the following equation:

$l o g k = 14.2 - \frac{1.0 \times 10^{4} K}{T}$

Calculate $E_{a}$ for this reaction and rate constant k of its half-life period be 200 minutes. ( Given: R= $8.314 J K^{- 1} m o l^{- 1}$

Solution

According to Arrhenius equation,
$k = A e^{- E_{a} / R T}$
$l n k = l n A - \frac{E_{a}}{R T}$
$l o g k = l o g A - \frac{E_{a}}{2.303 R T}$
Comparing with the given equation,
$\frac{E_{a}}{2.303 R T} = \frac{1.0 \times 10^{4} K}{T}$
$E_{a} = 2.303 R \times 1.04 \times 10^{4} K$
$E_{a} = 2.303 (8.314 J K^{- 1} m o l^{- 1}) \times 1.0 \times 10^{4} K$
$E_{a} = 191.47 k J m o l^{- 1}$
Half-life period, $t_{(} 1 / 2) = 200 minutes$
Rate constant, $k = \frac{0.693}{t_{(} 1 / 2)}$
$k = \frac{0.693}{200}$
$k = 0.3465 m i n^{- 1}$
