True or False. Increasing the temperature of a reaction by two, decreases the activation energy by two.
At the same temperature, two reactions with equal activation energy have rates that differ by a factor of 5. Explain
Determine the ratio of the rate constants for the following reactions at 30 ºC.
A + B → C; Ea = 100 kJ/mol
X + Y → Z; Ea = 18 kJ/mol
Assume both reactions have the same pre-exponential factor.
Which reaction is expected to have the smallest orientation factor?
What generally occurs in a reaction if the temperature is decreased?
A) The rate constant and rate of reaction is unaffected.
B) The rate constant decreases, which results in a slower rate.
C) The rate constant increases, which results in a slower rate.
D) The rate constant decreases, which results in a faster rate.
E) The rate constant increases, which results in a faster rate.
