On introducing a catalyst at 500 K, the rate of a first order increase to 1.718 times. The activation energy in the presence of a catalyst is 6.05 KJ/mole. The slope of the plot of lnk (sec –1 ) against 1/T in the absence of catalyst is.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
1
1000
Sol. 1.718 = Antilog = 
E a – E p = 2.25 KJ
E a = E p + 2.25 = 6.05 + 2.25 = 8.30 KJ/mole
lnk = lnA – 
Slope =
=
= – 1000
