Reactant A transforms itself to two different products B and C with rate constant k₁, k₂ in turn.

How much will activation energy of reaction be different if k₁/k₂ = 10 at 10^oC and k₁/k₂ = 0.1 at 40^oC ?

Sb help me to solve it

Do you know what equation relates rate constant, temperature and Activation energy?

[DQD]

i think the general equation is :
k = k₀.e^-E_a/RT

with k₀ is the specific constant for reaction

i dont know how to use it in parallel reaction

sure activation energy of parallel reaction B  C is sure more than other because on increasing temp rate is increasing more than first in second.

For reaction 1

k₁ = k₀₁.e^-E_a1/RT

for reaction 2

k₂ = k₀₂.e^-E_a2/RT
