Question
Which plot of $lnk$ vs $\frac{1}{\text{ }T}$ is consistent with Arrhenius equation?
Options
A.
B.
C.
D.
Solution
Sol. [Key Concept: Arrhenius plot]
The Arrhenius equation is given as
$$\begin{matrix} & k = Ae^{- \frac{E_{a}}{RT}} \\ & \ \therefore\ lnk = lnA - \frac{E_{a}}{RT} \end{matrix}$$
$lnk/s\frac{1}{\text{ }T}$ gives a straight-line graph with slope $= - \frac{E_{a}}{R}$ and intercept $= lnA$
