The minimum energy necessary to permit a reaction is

The temperature dependence of the rate constant $(k)$ of a chemical reaction is expressed by the Arrhenius equation,$k = A \cdot e^{-E^*/RT}$. The activation energy $(E^*)$ of the reaction can be calculated by plotting:

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 for the decomposition of $N_{2}O_{5}$ at various temperatures is given below:

$T / ^{\circ}C$	$0$	$20$	$40$	$60$	$80$
$10^{5} \times k / s^{-1}$	$0.0787$	$1.70$	$25.7$	$178$	$2140$

Draw a graph between $\ln k$ and $1 / T$ and calculate the values of $A$ and $E_{a}.$ Predict the rate constant at $30^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$.

Who discovered collision theory? On which the collision theory is based?

In a reaction,for every $10 ^\circ C$ rise in temperature,the rate is doubled. If the temperature is increased from $10 ^\circ C$ to $100 ^\circ C$,the rate of the reaction will become ......... times.
