The rate of a reaction triples when temperature changes from 200Cto500C{20}^{0}C to {50}^{0}C. The energy of activation for the reaction is (R=8.314JK−1mol−1)\left(R = 8 . 314{JK}^{- 1}{mol}^{- 1}\right)

Options

  1. A181.327Jmol−1181. 327J{mol}^{- 1}
  2. B428.141Jmol−1428. 141J{mol}^{- 1}
  3. C32.4321kJmol−132. 4321{kJmol}^{- 1}
  4. D28.8118kJmol−128. 8118{kJmol}^{- 1}

Correct answer

D. 28.8118kJmol−128. 8118{kJmol}^{- 1}

Step-by-step solution

Arrhenius equation is given by,
log⁡10K2K1=Ea2.303×R[T2−T1T1T2]</p><p>Given,</p><p>K2K1=3;R=−8.314JK−1mol−1\log_{10}\dfrac{K2}{K1} = \dfrac{Ea}{2. 303 \times R} \left[\dfrac{{T}_{2} - {T}_{1}}{{T}_{1}{T}_{2}}\right]</p><p>Given,</p><p>\dfrac{K2}{K1} =3; R = - 8. 314{JK}^{- 1}{mol}^{- 1}

T1=20+273=293K{T}_{1} = 20 + 273 = 293K
and T2=50+273=323K</p><p>Substitutingthe{T}_{2} = 50 + 273 = 323K</p><p>Substituting thegiven values in Arrhenius equation,

\log_{10}3 =Ea8.314×2.303\dfrac{Ea}{8. 314 \times 2. 303}\left[\dfrac{323 - 293}{323 \times 293}\right]

Ea={E}_{a} =\dfrac{2. 303 \times 8. 314 \times 323 \times 293 \times 0. 477}{30}</p><p></p><p>= 28811. 8J{mol}^{1}</p><p></p><p>= 28. 8118{kJmol}^{- 1}</p></p>
