(a) What is the physical significance of energy of activation ? Explain with diagram.(b) In general, it is observed that the rate of a chemical reaction doubles with every 10 degree rise in temperature. If the generalization holds good for the reaction in the temperature range of 295 K to 305 K, what would be the value of activation energy for this reaction ?[R = 8.314 J mol-1 K-1]
