Which among the following equation represents the Arrhenius equation?


A) $k=A_{e}^{E_{a}/RT}$

B) $k=A_{}.e^{RT/E_{a}}$

C) $k=\frac{A}{e^{E_{a}/RT}}$

D) $k=\frac{A}{e^{RT/E_{a}}}$

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

Variation  of rate constant k with temperature T(K) is given by Arrhenius equation

It is based  on the two theories of reaction rates, 

i.e, collision theory and transition state theory.

$k=Ae^{-E_{a}/RT}=\frac{A^-}{e^{E_{a}/RT}}$  .........(i)

 where 'A'  is called the frequency factor or pre-exponential factor.

 Ea is activation energy  $e^{-E_{a}/RT}$ is referred as Boltzmann factor. A, has same unit as the rate constant. Collectively A and Ea are called  the  Arrhenius parameters  of the reaction
