$A$ sample of milk splits after $60 \; min.$ at $300 \; K$ and after $40 \; min.$ at $400 \; K$ when the population of $Lactobacillus \; acidophilus$ in it doubles. The activation energy (in $kJ / mol$) for this process is closest to ............. $kJ / mol$.
(Given: $R = 8.3 \; J \; mol^{-1} \; K^{-1}$,$\ln(1.5) = 0.405$)

At temperature $T \ K$,the rate constant of a reaction is $1/10$th of the rate constant at temperature $2T \ K$. What will be the activation energy of this reaction (in $RT$)?
