JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2006 - No. 28)
Rate of a reaction can be expressed by Arrhenius equation as:
$$$k = A\,{e^{ - E/RT}}$$$ In this equation, E represents
$$$k = A\,{e^{ - E/RT}}$$$ In this equation, E represents
the energy above which all the colliding molecules will react
the energy below which colliding molecules will not react
the total energy of the reacting molecules at a temperature, T
the fraction of molecules with energy greater than the activation energy of the reaction
Explanation
In Arrhenius equation $$K = A\,{e^{ - E/RT}},\,\,E$$ is the energy of activation, which is required by the colliding molecules to react resulting in the formation of products.
