According to this formula:
K= A*(e^(-Ea/RT) when we have K =1.35X10^2 & T= 25+273= 298K &R=0.0821
Ea= 85.6 KJ/mol So by subsitution we can get A:
1.35x10^2 = A*(e^(-85.6/0.0821*298))
1.35x10^2 = A * 0.03
A= 4333
by substitution with the new value of T(75+273) = 348K & A to get the new K
∴K= 4333*(e^(-85.6/0.0821*348)
= 2.16 x10^2
