Question 14

XL-PNAT2 marksNeeds review
The activation energy (Eₐ) values for two reactions carried out at 25 °C differ by 5.0 kJ mol⁻¹. If the pre-exponential factors (A₁ and A₂) for these two reactions are of the same magnitude, the ratio of rate constants (k₁/k₂) is ______ (up to two decimal places). (Given: Gas constant R = 8.314 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹)
