For a complex reaction $A \xrightarrow{K} \text{products}$,where $Ea_1 = 180 \ kJ/mol$,$Ea_2 = 80 \ kJ/mol$,and $Ea_3 = 50 \ kJ/mol$,the overall rate constant $K$ is related to individual rate constants by the equation $K = (\frac{K_1 \cdot K_2}{K_3})^{2/3}$. The activation energy $(kJ/mol)$ for the overall reaction is:

The decomposition of $N_2O$ into $N_2$ and $O_2$ in the presence of argon follows first-order kinetics. If the rate constant is given by $K = 5.0 \times 10^{11} \, e^{-2000/T}$,what is the activation energy of the reaction?

The number of molecules with energy greater than the threshold energy for a reaction increases five-fold by a rise of temperature from $27^{\circ} C$ to $42^{\circ} C$. Its energy of activation in $J \ mol^{-1}$ is.............. (Take $\ln 5 = 1.6094$; $R = 8.314 \ J \ mol^{-1} K^{-1}$)

According to the Arrhenius equation,which of the following statements are correct?
$(A)$ $A$ high activation energy usually implies a fast reaction.
$(B)$ Rate constant increases with increase in temperature. This is due to a greater number of collisions whose energy exceeds the activation energy.
$(C)$ Higher the magnitude of activation energy,stronger is the temperature dependence of the rate constant.
$(D)$ The pre-exponential factor is a measure of the rate at which collisions occur,irrespective of their energy.
