Solution

We have Arrhenius $e a^{n}$
$K = A e^{- \frac{E a}{R T}}$
$A =$ Arrhenius Const $E a =$ activation Energy
On taking log on both side
$K = A + e^{(- \frac{E a}{R T})}$
$K = A + e^{(- \frac{E a}{R T})} K = A - \frac{E a}{R T} K = - \frac{E a}{R T} + A s l o p e = m = - \frac{E a}{R T}$
On y-axis $- K$
on X-axis $- (\frac{1}{T})$
y-intercept $A$
