Question

Consider a reaction A → B with activation energy 50.7 kJ/mol.

 

At 19.5 °C, the rate constant, k, for this reaction is 0.095 s−1. Calculate the temperature, T (in °C), at which k = 0.329 s−1. Assume the pre-exponential factor (A) is constant with temperature.

 

�=0.08206 L⋅atmmol⋅K=8.314 Jmol⋅K

 

�K=�∘C+273.15

 

1 kJ = 1000 J

 

Report your answer to three significant figures without the unit. Example: 20.0. Be sure that your answer is in °C and not Kelvin!
