Question
For the gas phase isomerization of cyclopropane,

\[
(\text{CH}_2)_3 \rightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{CH}=\text{CH}_2
\]

the rate constant in s\(^{-1}\) has been determined at several temperatures. When ln \(k\) is plotted against the reciprocal of the Kelvin temperature, the resulting linear plot has a slope of \(-3.27 \times 10^4\) K and a y-intercept of 34.9.

The value of the rate constant for the gas phase isomerization of cyclopropane at 752 K is \_\_\_\_\_\_ s\(^{-1}\).
