Problem

Two elementary reactions, P and Q, have identical collision frequencies and molecular orientations. At 298 K their activation energies are 50 kJ mol⁻¹ for P and 60 kJ mol⁻¹ for Q. Using R=8.31 J mol−1K−1R = 8.31\,\text{J mol}^{-1}\text{K}^{-1}, which value is closest to the ratio kP/kQk_P / k_Q at 298 K? a) 44 b) 6060 c) 1010 d) 11
