For a first order reaction,the rate constant is $0.04 \, \text{min}^{-1}$ at $27 \, ^\circ\text{C}$ and $0.08 \, \text{min}^{-1}$ at $37 \, ^\circ\text{C}.$ The activation energy of reaction is .......... $\text{kcal} / \text{mol}$ $(\ln \, 2 = 0.7)$

The rate constant for a chemical reaction taking place at $500 \ K$ is expressed as $K = A \ e^{-1000}$. The activation energy of the reaction is:

What is the slope of the graph between $\ln K$ and $\frac{1}{T}$ according to the Arrhenius equation?

For the reaction $A_2 + B_2 \rightleftharpoons 2AB$,the activation energies for the forward and backward reactions are $180 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$ and $200 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$ respectively. In the presence of a catalyst,the activation energy for both (forward and backward) reactions decreases by $100 \, kJ \, mol^{-1}$. What will be the enthalpy change $(\Delta H)$ for the reaction $(A_2 + B_2 \rightarrow 2AB)$ in the presence of a catalyst in $kJ \, mol^{-1}$?

All energetically effective collisions do not result in a chemical change. Explain with the help of an example.

The rate of gas phase chemical reactions generally increases rapidly with a rise in temperature. This is mainly because
