Consider the given plots for a reaction obeying Arrhenius equation ( 0 ° C < T < 300 ° C ) : ( K and E a are rate constant and activetion energy, respectively ) (I) (II)

Step-by-step solution

K = A e - E a / R T K decreases exponentially with E a ∴ The first graph is correct. But temperature is given in o C So, K ≠ 0 at 0 o C . ∴ For temperature between 0 o C and 300 o C , the graph will come like (II)
