Question

1. The rate constant for the reaction

Br(g) + O3(g) = BrO(g) + O2(g)

was determined at the four temperatures shown in the table below.

T (K) k [cm3/(molecule•s)

238 5.90 x 10-13

258 7.70 x 10-13

278 9.60 x 10-13

298 1.20 x 10-12

a) Plot the above data, and then use that data to calculate the activation energy for this reaction. answer in J
