Transcribed Image Text:The reaction C₂H₂(g) → 2C₂H₂(g) 8 has an activation energy of 262 kJ/mol. At 600.0 K, the rate constant, k, is 6.1 × 10-8 s¯¹. What is the value of the rate constant at 880.0 K? k = x10 TOOLS 8-1
Expert Solution
Step 1

State-1:

Temperature, T1 = 600.0 K

rate constant, k1 = 6.1*10-8 s-1 

State-2:

Temperature, T2 = 880.0 K

rate constant, k2 =  ?? (To be calculated) 

Activation energy of the reaction, Ea = 262 kJ/mol 

R = 0.008314 kJ.mol-1.K-1
