Really struggling with this concept.

Please show all work so I can better understand !

Thank you so much.

Suppose that in a given thermally activated process interstitial atoms are found to move from one site to another at the rate of \(4 \times 10^8\) jumps/s at 600 °C and at the rate of \(8 \times 10^{10}\) jumps/s at 900 °C.

Determine the activation energy \(Q\) in J/mol for the process. Note: Gas Constant, \(R = 8.314\) J/(mol·K).
