Choose the data set corresponding the to eighth digit in your Student ID Number.

Find the activation energy in units of kJ/mol by plotting the data. Use a full, clean sheet of graph paper. (Spread sheets plots are NOT acceptable.) Be sure to label the axes and that the data encompasses the entire plotted area.

Turn in the following:

Name

Student ID Number

The graph and activation energy found from the plot.
