Chemical Kinetics Question 23
Question: The activation energy of a reaction is zero. The rate constant of this reaction
Options:
A) Increases with increase of temperature
B) Decreases with an increase of temperature
C) Decreases with decrease of temperature
D) Is independent of temperature
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
When $ E_{a}=0 $ , the rate of reaction becomes independent of temperature.
$ (E_{a} $ = Energy of activation).
