![**Elementary Reaction Rate Analysis**
The initial reaction rate for the elementary reaction:
\[ 2A + B \rightarrow 4C \]
was measured as a function of temperature, where the concentration of A was 6 mol/L and the concentration of B was 3 mol/L. Below is the data collected:
| \(-r_A\) (mol/L · s) | 0.0040 | 0.0800 | 1.2000 | 16.00 |
|----------------------|--------|--------|--------|-------|
| \(T\) (K) | 600 | 680 | 760 | 840 |
Based on this data, please complete the following tasks:
**(B)** Determine the activation energy in J/mol and the pre-exponential factor. The pre-exponential factor should be provided in the same units as the rate constant “\(k\)”.
**(C)** Determine the rate constant “\(k\)” for a new temperature of 800 K.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fd47fc2c3-8f4b-4085-b234-bc909be774e3%2F2982fa96-4e50-4c58-89d6-509d67ac75b9%2Fmsthgae_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
