Answer:

The catalyzed reaction will take time of 5.11\times 10^{-8} years.

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

The expression used with catalyst and without catalyst is,

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=\frac{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_2}{RT}}}{A\times e^{\frac{-Ea_1}{RT}}}

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=e^{\frac{Ea_1-Ea_2}{RT}}

where,

K_2 = rate of reaction with catalyst

K_1 = rate of reaction without catalyst

Ea_2 = activation energy with catalyst  = 59.0 kJ/mol = 59000 J/mol

Ea_1 = activation energy without catalyst  = 184 kJ/mol = 184000 J/mol

R = gas constant

T = temperature = 600K

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

\frac{K_2}{K_1}=e^{\frac{184,000 kJ-59000 kJ}{R\times 300}}=7.632\times 10^{10}

The reaction enhances by 7.632\times 10^{10}  when catalyst is present.

Time taken by reaction without catalyzed = 3900 years

Time taken by reaction with catalyzed = x

x=\frac{3900 year}{7.632\times 10^{10}}=5.11\times 10^{-8} years

The catalyzed reaction will take time of 5.11\times 10^{-8} years.

Answer:

Hence the correct option is an option (b) Sr4, Cl,Br−,Na+.

Explanation:    

Bromine and chlorine belong to an equivalent group. As we go down the group the dimensions increases which too there's a charge on the bromine atom. therefore the size of the Br- is going to be larger in comparison to the chlorine atom.

Sr atom is within the second group, and also it's below the above-mentioned atoms.so Sr is going to be the larger one among all the atoms.

Sodium and chlorine belong to an equivalent period .size decrease from left to right. but due to the charge on sodium its size decreases and there's an opportunity that Na+ size could be adequate for Cl.      

Here we finally assume that two atoms are of an equivalent size (Na+ and Cl) which are less in size compared to the opposite two(Sr and Br-) during which one is greater (Sr)and the opposite is smaller(Br-).
