According to the Arrhenius equation,which of the following statements are correct?
$(A)$ $A$ high activation energy usually implies a fast reaction.
$(B)$ Rate constant increases with increase in temperature. This is due to a greater number of collisions whose energy exceeds the activation energy.
$(C)$ Higher the magnitude of activation energy,stronger is the temperature dependence of the rate constant.
$(D)$ The pre-exponential factor is a measure of the rate at which collisions occur,irrespective of their energy.

The activation energy of a reaction is......

Which of the following would give a linear plot?
($k$ is the rate constant of an elementary reaction and $T$ is temperature in absolute scale)

$A$ chemical reaction was carried out at $300 \, K$ and $280 \, K$. The rate constants were found to be $K_1$ and $K_2$ respectively. The energy of activation is $1.157 \times 10^4 \, cal \, mol^{-1}$ and $R = 1.987 \, cal \, K^{-1} \, mol^{-1}$. Then:

The time required for $10 \%$ completion of a first order reaction at $298 \,K$ is equal to that required for its $25 \%$ completion at $308 \,K$. If the value of $A$ is $4 \times 10^{10} \,s^{-1}$,calculate $k$ at $318 \,K$ and $E_a$.
