Question

When the same reaction NO2(g) + CO(g) -----> NO(g) + CO2(g) was run at 550 K, the rate constant k2 = 3.80 M-1s-1 . Use the k value above of question #3 and this k2 to calculate the Ea for this reaction.

k value from question #3: 1.90 M-1s-1

temperature from question #3: 540 K

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given Data: In a reaction

                               NO2(g) + CO(g) -----> NO(g) + CO2(g)

 K1= 1.90 M-1s-1 ,k2 = 3.80 M-1S-1

T1=540 K ,T2 =550 K

 Ea=Need to be calculated.
