Part 2: Arrenhius Equation
1. Plot ln k versus 1/T and perform linear regression:
slope = -83,100
ln A = 77.928

2. Determine E_a:
                            - slope = E_a/R
                      - (-83,100) = E_a/.00831
                                  E_a = 691 kJ/mol

3. For data provided, the Arrenhius equation is:
ln k = ln A - Ea/RT or ln k = 77.928 - 83100/T

4. To determine k when T = 1200K:
     ln k = 77.928 - 83100/1200
     ln k = 77.928 - 69.25
     ln k = 8.68
        k = 5880 min^-¹
