Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 1

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Relation between activation energy \(\left(E_a\right)\) and rate constant (k), \(\Rightarrow \quad k=A e^{-\frac{E_a}{R T}}\) Here, A = frequency factor or pre-exponential factor. T = temperature (in K) R = gas constant e = mathematical quantity Now, at…
