Answer» COMPLETE question: From the following data, the activation energy for the REACTION is (cal/mol): H₂ + I₂ → 2HI The table given in the question is attached below. 1) 4 × 10⁴ 2) 2 × 10⁴ 3) 8 × 10⁴ 4) 3 × 10⁴ Answer: The activation energy for the reaction is 1) 4 × 10⁴ cal/molExplanation: The activation energy is given by the FORMULA: log K = log A - Eₐ/RT On substituting the values of first row, we get, 2.9 = log A - Eₐ/(2.303R × 769) → (equation 1) On substituting the values of second row, we get, 1.1 = log A - Eₐ/(2.303R × 667) → (equation 2) On subtracting equation (2) from (1), we get, 1.8 = (Eₐ × (769 - 667))/(2 × 667 × 769 × 2.303) ∴ Eₐ = 4.17 × 10⁴ cal/mol |
