The decomposition of NO2 follows a second order rate equation. Data at different temperatures are as follows:
T (K) 592 603 627 651.5 656
k (cm3/gmol.sec) 522 755 1700 4020 5030
Compute the energy of activation Energy from the data. The reaction is 2NO2 ---> 2NO + O2
In this problem Activation Energy has been detemined by graphical method.
