A. True would be the best answer
The activation energy Ea can be related to rate constant (k) at temperature (T) through the equation:
ln(k2/k1) = Ea/R[1/T1 - 1/T2]
where :
k1 is the rate constant at temperature T1
k2 is the rate constant at temperature T2
R = gas constant = 8.314 J/K-mol
Given data:
k1 = 0.543 s-1; T1 = 25 C = 25+273 = 298 K
k2 = 6.47 s-1; T = 47 C = 47+273 = 320 K
ln(6.47/0.543) = Ea/8.314 [1/298 - 1/320]
2.478 = 2.774 *10^-5 Ea
Ea = 0.8934*10^5 J = 89.3 kJ
Answer: 1.) His action is not justified because he could have done something else like talking with someone.
2.) Some of the negative consequences could be Mr. King could lose his job or worse not be able to teach again.
3.) Some other options were having him retake the test or talking to the head of the school, or many other things.
