Question

Two reactions R1 and R2 have identical pre-exponential factors. Activation energy of R1 exceeds that of R2 by 10kJmol−1. If k1 and k2 are rate constant for reactions R1 and R2 respectively at 300K, then ln(k2/k1) is equal to: (R=8.314Jmol−1K−1)

Solution

The correct option is C 4
We know K=AeEaRT

K1=AeEa1RT

K2=AeEa2RT


K2K1=eEa1Ea2RT


ln(K2K1)=Ea1Ea2RT

=10×10008.314×300

=4.00

The correct option is C.
