Solution

The correct option is A A=2.64×109M1s1
The figure below shows a plot between in k against 1/T. It can be seen that it is a straight line with slop = -20.62 K and therefore, its activity energy.
Ea=(20.62)×8.314Jmol1K1
=171400Jmol1or171.4kJmol1
We can now calculate the value of A From the value ofk at 667 K.
In A = In k+EaRT=logA=logk+EaRT
log A = log (9.2103)+171400Jmol1(8.314Jmol1K1)×667K
Solve for log A and then take antilog
A=2.64×109M1s1
