Question

Given that the initial rate constant is 0.0110s−1 at an initial temperature of 21 ∘C , what would the rate constant be at a temperature of 150∘C for the same reaction described in Part A?

This was part A
The activation energy of a certain reaction is 45.5 kJ/mol . At 21 ∘C , the rate constant is 0.0110s−1 . I got 32.4 degree C

Answer 1

The rate constant is mathematically given as

K2=2.67sec^{-1}

What is the Arrhenius equation?

The rate constant for a particular reaction may be calculated with the use of the Arrhenius equation. This constant can be stated in terms of two distinct temperatures, T1 and T2, as follows:

$ln(\frac{K2}{K1})= (\frac{Ea}{R})*(\frac{1}{T1}-\frac{1}{T2})$

Therefore

KT1= 0.0110^{-1}

T1= 21+273.15

T1= 294.15K

T2= 200  

T2=200+273.15

T2= 473.15K

Ea= 35.5 Kj/Mol

Hence, in  j/mol R Ea is

Ea=35.5*1000 j/mol R

$ln(\frac{K2}{0.0110})= (\frac{35.5*1000}{8.314})*(\frac{1}{294.15}-\frac{1}{473.15}\\\\ln(\frac{K2}{0.0110})=5.492$

K2/0.0110 =e^(5.492)

K2/0.0110 =242.74

K2= 242.74*0.0110

K2=2.67sec^{-1}

In conclusion, rate constant

K2=2.67sec^{-1}
