Answer:

The factor of increasing reaction rate is 1,85x10¹².

Explanation:

Using arrhenius formula:

k = A e^\frac{-E_{a}}{RT}

Where k is rate constant; A is frecuency factor; Eₐ is activation energy; R is gas constant (0,008134 kJ/molK); T is temperature 25°C = 298,15K

Thus, replacing for an activation energy of 125 kJ/mol assuming A as 1:

k = 1,25x10⁻²²

When activation energy is 55kJ/mol:

k = 2,31x10⁻¹⁰

Thus, the factor of increasing reaction rate is:

2,31x10⁻¹⁰/1,25x10⁻²² =<em> 1,85x10¹²</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

When KNO3 dissolved in water, what is the intermolecular attraction between NO3 ions
Snezhnost [94]
Ion-dipole forces

H2O has hydrogen bonding, which is a form of dipole-dipole forces, and NO3- is an ion, so the intermolecular attraction is ion-dipole.

What is evaporation? Describe what happens at the molecular level during evaporation.
jasenka [17]
 Evaporation happens<span> when atoms or </span>molecules<span> escape from the liquid and turn into a vapor. Not all of the </span>molecules in a liquid have the same energy. <span>Sometimes a </span>liquid<span> can be sitting in one place (maybe a puddle) and its molecules will become a </span>gas<span>. That's the process called </span>evaporation<span>. It can happen when liquids are cold or when they are warm. It happens more often with warmer liquids. You probably remember that when matter has a higher temperature, the molecules have a higher </span>energy<span>. When the energy in specific molecules reaches a certain level, they can have a </span>phase change<span>. Evaporation is all about the energy in individual molecules, not about the average energy of a system. The average energy can be low and the evaporation still continues. </span>
