Answer:

The activation energy for this reaction, Ea = 159.98 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Using the Arrhenius equation as:

ln\frac {K_2}{K_1}=-\frac {E_a}{R}\times (\frac {1}{T_2}-\frac {1}{T_1})

Where, Ea is the activation energy.

R is the gas constant having value 8.314 J/K.mol

K₂ and K₁ are the rate constants

T₂ and T₁ are the temperature values in kelvin.

Given:

K₂ = 8.66×10⁻⁷ s⁻¹ , T₂ = 425 K

K₁ = 3.61×10⁻¹⁵ s⁻¹ , T₁ = 298 K

Applying in the equation as:

ln\frac {8.66\times 10^{-7}}{3.61\times 10^{-15}}=-\frac {E_a}{8.314}\times (\frac {1}{425}-\frac {1}{298})

Solving for Ea as:

Ea = 159982.23 J /mol

1 J/mol = 10⁻³ kJ/mol

Ea = 159.98 kJ/mol

A group of organisms that is able to interbreed is called a
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

D species

Explanation:

According to the most widely used species definition, the biological species concept, a species is a group of organisms that can potentially interbreed, or mate, with one another to produce viable, fertile offspring. In this definition, members of the same species must have the potential to interbreed.

Korolek [52]
The next step to take is to used the scientific method to explore the observations she has made in order to discover the facts behind her observations. She should ask questions about the hotness of the pavement and form an hypothesis to support her observation. She should then set up an appropriate experiment to confirm her hypothesis. After the conduction of the experiment, she should analyze her results and then draw a conclusion.<span />

when a cold front passes your loction,the temperature falls as a result air density increases,decreases or stays the same
Brilliant_brown [7]
<span> When a gas is cooled, it contracts. In a sealed environment, the pressure would therefore reduce, as the molecules try to get closer together, that is, push outwards less. But in the atmosphere, the closer-packed molecules (or atoms, of course) make the air more dense, therefore heavier.

If you were at a higher elevation, the cooling is caused by the reduced pressure causing the molecules to move further apart. The temperature reduces about 1 degree Centigrade for every 100metres gain in elevation.

Any good? </span>
