For a parallel reaction A goes to B with rate constant k1 and A goes to C with rate constant k2, you determine that the activation energies are 24.6 kJ/mol for k1 and 116.4 kJ/mol for k2. If the rate constants are equal at a temperature of 318 K, at what temperature (in K) will k1/k2 = 2?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Arrhenius' equation gives the dependence of the rate constant of a chemical reaction on the absolute temperature (in kelvin), where is the pre-exponential factor (or simply the prefactor), is the activation energy, and is the universal gas constant (

For the reaction 1: , the rate constant is given by the following equation:

For the reaction 2: , the rate constant is given by the following equation:

At T=318 K:
