Chlorine Atoms React with Methane, CH4 (G) + Cl(g) \rightarrow HCl(g) + CH3 (G)

Question 158

Essay

Chlorine atoms react with methane, CH4 (g) + Cl(g) \rightarrow HCl(g) + CH3 (g).The rate constant for the reaction is measured at 298, 303, 308, and 313 K.
A) Using the plot of ln k vs.1/T, calculate the activation energy and the frequency factor of the reaction.
B) Estimate the rate constant at 318 K using the Arrhenius equation.
