- Correct statements regarding Arrhenius equation among the following are:
Factor \(e^{-E_a/RT}\) corresponds to fraction of molecules having kinetic energy less than \(E_a\).
At a given temperature, lower the \(E_a\), faster is the reaction.
Increase in temperature by about \(10^\circ\text{C}\) doubles the rate of reaction.
Plot of \(\log k\) vs \(\dfrac{1}{T}\) gives a straight line with slope \(= -\dfrac{E_a}{R}\).
