Question

A first-order reaction is carried out at several different temperatures. The data are plotted as ln k vs 1/T. How is the slope of the graph related to Ea?

A.

Ea = slope × 8.314 J•mol–1•K–1

B.

Ea = –slope × 8.314 J•mol–1•K–1

✓ Correct
C.

1/Ea = slope × 8.314 J•mol–1•K–1

D.

1/Ea = –slope × 8.314 J•mol–1•K–1
