If a reaction follows the Arrhenius equation,the plot $\ln k$ vs $1/(RT)$ gives a straight line with a gradient of $(-y) \ unit$. The energy required to activate the reactant is

  • A
    $y \ unit$
  • B
    $y/R \ unit$
  • C
    $yR \ unit$
  • D
    $-y \ unit$

In the Arrhenius equation,$k = A e^{-E_a/RT}$,the rate constant $k$ becomes equal to the frequency factor $A$ when:

The reason for almost doubling the rate of reaction on increasing the temperature of the reaction system by $10 \, ^\circ C$ is

The rate constant is doubled when temperature increases from $27^{\circ} C$ to $37^{\circ} C$. What is the activation energy in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$?

In an exothermic reaction $A \to B$,the evolved heat is $280 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ and the activation energy is $200 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. The activation energy of the reverse reaction $B \to A$ is $.......... \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$.

The energies of activation for forward and reverse reactions for $A_2 + B_2 \rightleftharpoons 2AB$ are $180 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$ and $200 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$ respectively. The presence of a catalyst lowers the activation energy of both (forward and reverse) reactions by $100 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}.$ The enthalpy change of the reaction $(A_2 + B_2 \rightarrow 2AB)$ in the presence of a catalyst will be (in $kJ \, mol^{-1}$)
