Question

Label following statement as true or false. Correct any false statement to
make it true.

a.) Increasing temperature increases reaction rate.
b.) If a reaction is fast, it has a large rate constant.

Expert Solution
Step 1

(a)

The relation of rate constant with temperature is given by Arrhenius equation.

k=Ae-Ea/RT

where k is the rate constant, A is the pre exponential factor or collision frequency, Ea is the activation energy, R is the universal gas constant and T is the temperature.
