An egg takes $4.0 \text{ minutes}$ to boil at sea level where the boiling point of water is $T_1 \text{ K}$, whereas it takes $8.0 \text{ minutes}$ to boil on a mountain top where the boiling point of water is $T_2 \text{ K}$. The activation energy for the reaction that takes place during the boiling of an egg is:
