Problem
Suppose that a catalyst lowers the activation barrier of a reaction from 155 kJ/mol to 73 kJ/mol. By what factor would you expect the reaction rate to increase at 30oC? (Assume that the frequency factor for the catalyzed and uncatalyzed reactions are identical). Answer should include 3 significant figures.
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
