The reaction: $Cr_{2}O_{3} + 2 Al \rightarrow Al_{2}O_{3} + 2 Cr$ $\quad (\Delta_{r}G^{\Theta} = -421 \ kJ)$ is thermodynamically feasible as is apparent from the Gibbs energy value. Why does it not take place at room temperature?

The decomposition of a hydrocarbon follows the equation $K = (4.5 \times 10^{11} \, s^{-1}) e^{-28000 \, K/T}$. What will be the value of activation energy in $KJ \, mol^{-1}$?

The rate constants for the decomposition of acetaldehyde have been measured over the temperature range $700-1000 \ K$. The data has been analysed by plotting a $\ln \ k \ vs \ \frac{10^{3}}{T}$ graph,which gives a slope of $-18.5$. The value of activation energy for the reaction is $...... \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$.
