The activation energy for the reaction is 56217.3 J/mol

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius equation,

K=A\times e^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

or,

\log (\frac{K_2}{K_1})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

K_1 = rate constant at 30^oC = x

K_2 = rate constant at 50^oC = 4x

Ea = activation energy for the reaction = ?

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole.K

T_1 = initial temperature = 30^oC=273+30=303K

T_2 = final temperature = 50^oC=273+50=323K

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

\log (\frac{4x}{x})=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{323K}]

0.60=\frac{Ea}{2.303\times 8.314J/mole.K}[\frac{1}{303K}-\frac{1}{323K}]

E_a=56217.3J/mol

Therefore, the activation energy for the reaction is 56217.3 J/mol
