Expert Solution
Step 1

Arrhenius equation is an expression that relates to the activation energy, temperature, and the rate constant of a specific reaction.

This equation also defines the ratio of rate constant at two temperatures with the activation energy of the reaction.

Since the problem states that the reaction proceed 7.00 times faster than it did at 297 K. Therefore ,k increases by a factor of 7 as the temperature increases , so we can replace k2 as 7k1.
