Activation energy depends on the nature of the chemical transformation that takes
place, but not on the relative energy state of the reactants and products.
Sublimation occurs at 1 atm and 25.0º C: - ANSWER when the triple point is above 1
atm pressure.

number.
The reaction, 2X + 2Y→ Z, was found to obey the rate law: Rate = k[X]2[Y]2. Two
experiments were done. In the 2nd experiment, the concentrations of both X and Y
were doubled compared to the 1st How much faster was the initial rate in the 2nd
experiment compared to the 1st experiment? - ANSWER 16 times faster
The activation energy (Ea) of a reaction can be determined from the graph of ln(k)
vs. 1/T where k is the rate constant of a reaction, T is the temperature, and R is the
gas constant. Such a plot yields a straight line with slope equal to: - ANSWER -Ea/R
