JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2005 - No. 27)

A schematic plot of $$ln$$ $${K_{eq}}$$ versus inverse of temperature for a reaction is shown below

AIEEE 2005 Chemistry - Chemical Kinetics and Nuclear Chemistry Question 145 English
The reaction must be
highly spontaneous at ordinary temperature
one with negligible enthalpy change
endothermic
exothermic

Explanation

The graph show that reaction is exothermic.

$$\log \,k = {{ - \Delta H} \over {RT}} + 1$$

For exothermic reaction $$\Delta H < 0$$

$$\therefore$$ $$\,\,\,\,\,log\,\,k\,\,Vs{1 \over T}\,\,$$ would be negative straight line with positive slope.
