Chemical Kinetics - Result Question 65

####65. The rate constant for the first order decomposition of a certain reaction is described by the equation

$$ \log k\left(s^{-1}\right)=14.34-\frac{1.25 \times 10^{4} K}{T} $$

(i) What is the energy of activation for the reaction?

(ii) At what temperature will its half-life period be $256 min$ ?
