DATA ANALYSIS
1. Determine the activation energy, Ea, by plotting the natural log of k (In k) vs. the reciprocal of
absolute temperature (1/T). Note: Absolute temperature, T= °C + 273.
a. Choose New Calculated Column from the Data menu.
b. Create a column, In rate constant, k.
c. Create a second column, reciprocal of absolute temperature, 1/(Temperature (°C) + 273).
d. On the displayed graph, plot In rate constants (In k) on the y-axis and the reciprocal of
absolute temperature (1/T) on the x-axis by clicking on the respective axes labels. Autoscale
the graph if necessary.
Note: Attach this graph you created in your lab report as Figure 6 (title the graph properly).
Describe the relationship between In k vs. 1/T.
2. Calculate the activation energy, Eo, for the reaction. To do this, first calculate the best fit line
equation (linear fit) for the data in Step 2. Record the slope, m, of the linear fit below and use it
to calculate the activation energy, Eo, in units of kJ/mol.
Note: On a plot of In k vs. 1/T, Ea = m x R.
3. A well-known approximation in chemistry states that the rate of a reaction often doubles for
every 10°C increase in temperature. Use your data to test this rule. (Note: It is not necessarily
equal to 2.00; this is just an approximate value, and depends on the activation energy for the
reaction.)
