A sample of milk splits after at and after at when the population of Iactobacillus acidophilus in it doubles. The activation energy (in ) for this process is closest to ______________.

For a reaction, consider the plot of versus given in the figure. If the rate constant of this reaction at is , then the rate constant at is:


It was found that the is decreased by in the presence of catalyst. If the rate remains unchanged, the activation energy for catalysed reaction is (Assume pre-exponential factor is same)
