The rate of a reaction depends upon the temperature and is quantitatively expressed as

k = Ae-Ea/RT

(i) If a graph is plotted between log k and 1/T, write the expression for the slope of the reaction?

(ii) If at under different conditions Ea1 and Ea2 are the activation energy of two reactions If Ea1 = 40 J / mol and Ea2 = 80 J / mol. Which of the two has a larger value of the rate constant?
