Chemical Kinetics Question 248
Question: The temperature coefficient of a reaction is
Options:
A) Specific reaction rate at $ 25^{o}C $
B) Rate of the reaction at $ 100^{o}C $
C) Ratio of the rate constants at temperatures $ 35^{o}C $ and $ 25^{o}C $
D) Ratio of the rate constants at two temperatures differing by $ 1^{o}C $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
Temperature coefficient $ \frac{{K_{3{5^{o}}C}}}{{K_{25^{o}C}}}=\frac{K_{308k}}{K_{298k}}=2 $ and 3 for most reactions.
