Q. The temperature coefficient of a reaction is 2. When the temperature is increases from $30^\circ C$ to $90^\circ C$ , the rate of reaction is increased by

Solution:

Temperature coefficient 2 means rate of reaction doubles at every $10^\circ C$ rise in temperature.
Thus, $\frac{k_{90 ^\circ C}}{k_{30 ^\circ C}}=2^{6}=64$
