For the following reactions:
$A \xrightarrow{700 \ K}$ Product
$A \xrightarrow[\text{catalyst}]{500 \ K}$ Product
it was found that $E_{a}$ is decreased by $30 \ kJ/mol$ in the presence of a catalyst. If the rate remains unchanged,the activation energy for the catalysed reaction is (Assume pre-exponential factor is same):

  • A
    $135$
  • B
    $105$
  • C
    $198$
  • D
    $75$

Consider the following transformation involving first order elementary reactions in each step at constant temperature as shown below.
$A + B \underset{\text{Step } 3}{\overset{\text{Step } 1}{\rightleftharpoons}} C \xrightarrow{\text{Step } 2} P$
Some details of the above reaction are listed below.
Step Rate constant $(s^{-1})$ Activation energy $(kJ \ mol^{-1})$
$1$ $k_1$ $300$
$2$ $k_2$ $200$
$3$ $k_3$ $Ea_3$

If the overall rate constant of the above transformation $(k)$ is given as $k = \frac{k_1 k_2}{k_3}$ and the overall activation energy $(E_a)$ is $400 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$,then the value of $Ea_3$ is $\qquad$ $kJ \ mol^{-1}$ (nearest integer).

The rate of the process doubles with every $10 \ K$ increase in temperature. When the temperature is increased from $303 \ K$ to $353 \ K$,how much will the rate of the process increase?
