At 47 °C, what is the fraction of collisions with energy equal or greater than an activation energy of 88.20 kJ/mol?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The fraction of collision is [tex]4.00\times10^{-15}[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Temperature = 47°C

Activation energy = 88.20 KJ/mol

From Arrhenius equation,

[tex]k=Ae^{-\dfrac{E_{a}}{RT}}[/tex]

Here, [tex]e^{-\dfrac{E_{a}}{RT}}[/tex]=fraction of collision

We need to calculate the fraction of collisions

Using formula of fraction of collisions

[tex]f=e^{-\dfrac{E_{a}}{RT}}[/tex]

Where f = fraction of collision

E = activation energy

R = gas constant

T = temperature

Put the value into the formula

[tex]f=e^{-\dfrac{88.20}{8.314\times10^{-3}\times(47+273)}}[/tex]

[tex]f=4.00\times10^{-15}[/tex]

Hence, The fraction of collision is [tex]4.00\times10^{-15}[/tex]
