For the following reactions

Question:

For the following reactions

$\mathrm{A} \stackrel{700 \mathrm{~K}}{\longrightarrow}$ Product

$\mathrm{A} \underset{\text { catalyst }}{\stackrel{500 \mathrm{~K}}{\longrightarrow}}$ Product

it was found that $E_{a}$ is decreased by $30 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$ in the presence of catalyst.

If the rate remains unchanged, the activation energy for catalysed reaction is (Assume pre exponential factor is same):

 

 

  1. $135 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$

  2. $105 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$

  3. $198 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$

  4. $75 \mathrm{~kJ} / \mathrm{mol}$


Correct Option: , 4

Solution:
