For a reaction having three steps, the overall rate constant is $K = \frac{k_1 k_2}{k_3}$. The values of $E_{a1}$, $E_{a2}$ and $E_{a3}$ (activation energies for each step) are $40$, $50$ and $60 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}$ respectively. The overall activation energy $E_a$ of the reaction is:

Which one of the following is true for an exothermic reaction $A \rightleftharpoons B$, if $E_f$ and $E_b$ are the activation energies of forward and backward reactions respectively?

For the decomposition of $N_2O_5,$ the reaction is $2N_2O_{5(g)} \rightarrow 4NO_{2(g)} + O_{2(g)}$ with activation energy $E_a.$ If the reaction is written as $N_2O_{5(g)} \rightarrow 2NO_{2(g)} + 1/2 O_{2(g)}$ with activation energy $E_a',$ what is the relationship between $E_a$ and $E_a'$?

The energy profile diagram for a multi-step reaction,$A$ $\xrightarrow{1} B$ $\xrightarrow{2} C$ $\xrightarrow{3} D,$ is given below. The rate-determining step of the reaction is:

Slope of the straight line obtained by plotting $\log_{10} k$ against $\frac{1}{T}$ represents which term?

Correct statements regarding Arrhenius equation among the following are:
$(A)$ Factor $e^{-Ea/RT}$ corresponds to fraction of molecules having kinetic energy less than $Ea$.
$(B)$ At a given temperature, lower the $Ea$, faster is the reaction.
$(C)$ Increase in temperature by about $10^{\circ}C$ doubles the rate of reaction.
$(D)$ Plot of $\log k$ vs $\frac{1}{T}$ gives a straight line with $slope = -\frac{Ea}{2.303R}$.
