According to Arrhenius equation, the plot that correctly describes the temperature (T) dependence of the rate constant (k) is
The main characteristics of Arrhenius equation are described below.
1.Larger the activation energy, smaller the value of rate constant.
2.Larger the activation energy, greater the effect of a given temperature rise on k.
3.At lower temperatures, increase in temperature causes more change in the value of k than that at higher temperatures.
Substance ‘A’ is exposed to 600nm, 100 W light source for 6626s, with 50% of the incident light being absorbed. ‘A’ decomposes according to the reaction A→B . As a result of irradiation, 0.2 mol of B is produced. The quantum yield of the reaction is closest to
