The of nitric oxide (NO) to N2 on is second order with a rate constant of o796 s 1 at 737 press the activation energy in kilojoules per mole to three significant digits. Cand 0.0815 M 1. s-1 at 947 C. You may want to reference (ua pages 593 598) Section 14.5 while completing this problem. kJ/mol Submit MAnswerm Incorrect Try Again: 9 attempts remaining The Arrhenius equason can be used to derive a relatonship that relates the rate oonstants (kh and kr) to th as follows: The gas constant, R is equal to 314 J/(mol. K). isolate and solve the term for activation energy, E,

Explanation / Answer

ln (k2/k1) = E/R (1/T1-1/T2)

or, ln (0.0815/0.0796) = E/8.314 J /K/mol [1/737-1/947]

or, E = 651.63 J/K/mol
