Given below are two statements:
\(R=8.314\) J K\(^{-1}\) mol\(^{-1}\) and \(1\) cal \(=4.2\) J
Statement I: When \(E_a=12.6\) kcal/mol, the room temperature rate constant is doubled by a \(10\,^\circ\)C increase in temperature (\(298\) K to \(308\) K)
Statement II: For a first order reactions A \(\rightarrow\) B,

Here \([A]_o\) is the initial concentration of A and \(t_{1/2}\) is half life of reaction.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- A Both Statement I and Statement II are true
- B Both Statement I and Statement II are false
- C Statement I is true but Statement II is false
- D Statement I is false but Statement II is true
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
For Statement I: According to the Arrhenius equation: \(\log \left( \dfrac{k_2}{k_1} \right) = \dfrac{E_a}{2.303 R} \left( \dfrac{T_2 - T_1}{T_1 T_2} \right)\) Given that the rate constant doubles, \(k_2 = 2k_1\). The temperatures are \(T_1 = 298\) K and \(T_2 = 308\) K. The gas…
