A first order reaction is 50%50\% complete in 3030 minutes at 300K300\,\mathrm{K} and in 10 minutes at 320K320\,\mathrm{K}. Calculate activation energy (Ea)(E_a) for the reaction.
[R=8.314JK1mol1][R=8.314\,\mathrm{J}\,\mathrm{K}^{-1}\,\mathrm{mol}^{-1}]
[Given: log2=0.3010,log3=0.4771,[\text{Given: } \log 2=0.3010, \log 3=0.4771, log4=0.6021]\log 4=0.6021]
K1K_1 at 27C27^{\circ}\mathrm{C} or 300K=0.69330min=0.0231min1300\,\mathrm{K}=\frac{0.693}{30\,\mathrm{min}}=0.0231\,\mathrm{min}^{-1}
K2K_2 at 47C47^{\circ}\mathrm{C} or 320K1=0.69310min=0.0693min1320\,K_1=\frac{0.693}{10\,\mathrm{min}}=0.0693\,\mathrm{min}^{-1}
Using Arrhenius equation:
log(K2K1)=Ea2.303R\log\left(\frac{K_2}{K_1}\right)=\frac{Ea}{2.303\,R} (T2T1T1T2)\left(\frac{T_2-T_1}{T_1 T_2}\right)
log(0.06930.0231)=Ea2.303×8.314×103kjmol1K1(20300×320)\log\left(\frac{0.0693}{0.0231}\right)=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times8.314\times10^{-3}\,\mathrm{kj}\,\mathrm{mol}^{-1}\,\mathrm{K}^{-1}}\left(\frac{20}{300\times320}\right)
Ea=43.85kj/molE_a=43.85\,\mathrm{kj}/\mathrm{mol}.
