Title: Initial rate
Post by: ist2601 on March 23, 2021, 01:25:53 PM

Activation energy of some irreversible second-order reaction is equal to 107.2 [kJxmol^-1]. The initial concentration of the one and only substrate of this reaction is equal to c. If this initial concentration is reduced by half, at what temperature will this reaction proceed with the same initial rate as that of this reaction taking place at 300[K] with the unchanged initial concentration of the substrate.

It is a forum rule that you must show your attempt before we can help you.

This is what I tried to do, but to be honest I have no idea if I even started from correct formula.

What you have done so far is correct. Just go on and complete it.
