NEET Chemistry Rate of Reaction MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-diagram based-Medium-Class 12
A diagram shows a plot of ln k vs 1/T for a chemical reaction, forming a straight line. Which of the following statements about this plot is correct?

A
The slope of the line is equal to -Ea/R.
B
The y-intercept of the line represents -Ea/R.
C
The slope of the line is proportional to the rate of reaction.
D
The plot is indicative of a zero-order reaction.
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
According to the Arrhenius equation, the slope of the ln k vs 1/T plot is equal to -Ea/R, where Ea is the activation energy and R is the gas constant.
