If a temperature increase from 12. 0 °C to 20. 0 °C doubles the rate constant for a reaction. What is the value of the activation barrier for the reaction is 60.155KJ/mol.

<h3>What is activation energy? </h3>

Activation energy is defined as the minimum amount of energy required by molecules to occur a chemical reaction. It is denoted by Ea.

Given,

T1 = 12+273 = 285K

T2 = 20 +273 = 293K

Rate constant = k2/k1 = 2:1

Using arrhenius equation which give relationship between constant of reaction and temperature is

In(k2/k1) = Ea/(R[1/T1 - 1/T2]

where, Ea is the activation energy

and R is the gas constant

T1 is the initial temperature

T2 is the final temperature

In2= Ea/R[(1/285) - (1/293)]

Ea = In2 × 8.314 ×285×293/8

Ea = 0.301 ×8.314 ×285×293/8

Ea = 60155J/mol

Ea = 60.155KJ/mol.

Thus we calculated that the activation energy for a reaction at 12°C to 20°C is 60.155KJ/mol.

Bad White [126]
Protons cannot be lost without the atoms becoming an entirely different element. Elements can infact have different numbers of neutrons within the same element, but neutrons are not related to the electrical charge. The answer is c. electrons.
