Consider the following reaction:
PH;BCko)
5 PH3e) + BCke)
a) The forward rate constant was determined to be 0.00346M's' at 550.0°C and
0.950 M's' at 650.o°C. Calculate the Ea in units of kJ/mol.

to (1) label your axes and (2) show the energy of activation Es, barrier when
given (3) the difference between reactant and product to be AH,=+62.5kJ/mol.
c) If a catalyst was introduced to this chemical system, how would this affect the
energy diagram in part b, above? With a pen of another color, DRAW THE
EFFECTS OF A CATALYST AND THE TRANSITION STATE IN THE
ACTIVATION ENERGY DIAGRAM, ABOVE.
