MCQ
Which is Incorrect according to the Arrhenius's equation ?
  • A
    The number of effective collisions depends on the number of molecules above a certain threshold energy
  • B
    As the temperature increases, the number of molecules with energies exceeding the threshold energy increases
  • C
    The rate const ant is a function of temperature
  • Activation energy and pre-exponential factors are temperature independent

Answer

Correct option: D.
Activation energy and pre-exponential factors are temperature independent
d
$k=A e^{-E_a / R T}$

It indicates that effective collisions occur by those molecules which have proper orientation with energy more than threshold energy. As $T$ increases number of molecules with energies exceeding the threshold energy also increases.
