2.2 × 10⁻² min⁻¹

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Arrhenius equation

$$\ln(\frac{k_2 }{k_1}) = (\frac{E_{a} }{R})(\frac{1}{T_1} – \frac{1 }{T_2 })$$

Data:

k₁ = 9.8 × 10⁻³ min⁻¹; k₂ = ?

Eₐ = 126 kJ·mol⁻¹

T₁ = 30 °C; T₂ = 35°C

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperatures to kelvins.

T₁ = (30 + 273.15) K = 303.15  K

T₂ = (35 + 273.15) K = 308.15  K

(b) Activation energy

$$\ln(\frac{k_{2} }{9.8 \times 10^{-3}}) = (\frac{126 000 }{8.314})(\frac{ 1}{303.15} – \frac{1 }{308.15 })$$

$$\ln(\frac{k_{2} }{9.8\times10^{-3}}) = 15160\times 5.35 \times10^{-5}$$

$$\ln(\frac{k_{2} }{9.8 \times 10^{-3}}) = 0.811$$

$$\frac{k_{2} }{9.8\times 10^{-3}} = \text{e}^{0.811}$$

$$\frac{k_{2} }{9.8 \times 10^{-3}} = 2.25$$

k₂ = 9.8 × 10⁻³× 2.25

= 0.022 min⁻¹

= 2.2 × 10⁻² min⁻¹
