Expert Solution
Step 1: Value of kinetic rate constant

The Arrhenius equation describes the temperature dependence of reaction rates. 

It is given by

k equals A e to the power of negative fraction numerator E subscript a over denominator R T end fraction end exponent

where, k is the rate constant.

A is the Arrhenius factor.

Ea is the activation energy.

R is the universal gas constant (8.314 J/mol-K).

T is the absolute temperature in Kelvin.

Reaction taking place is 

A plus 2 B rightwards arrow 3 C

This reaction is elementary reaction. Therefore, rate of reaction is 

negative r subscript A equals k C subscript A C subscript B superscript 2

Given, concentrations of A and B are 

C subscript A equals 4 space fraction numerator m o l over denominator d m cubed end fraction
C subscript B space equals space 6 space fraction numerator m o l over denominator d m cubed end fraction

Putting value in rate equation we get 

negative r subscript A equals k cross times 4 cross times open parentheses 6 close parentheses squared space equals space 144 k
k space equals space fraction numerator negative r subscript A over denominator 144 end fraction
