Question

At a certain temperature, the first order rate constant k1 is found to be smaller than the second order rate constant k2. If Ea(1) of the first order reaction is greater than Ea(2) of the second order reaction, than as temperature is raised:

Options

A.k2 will increase faster than k1.
B.k1 will increase faster than k2 but will always remain less than k2.
C.k1 will increase faster than k2 and becomes equal to k2.
D.k1 will increase faster than k2 and becomes greater than k2.

Solution

Since k2 > k1.
