Negative activation energy?

Postby Rachel Wang » Fri Mar 16, 2018 7:02 pm

Is it possible to get a negative activation energy cuz I got one for Lyndon Bui's Practice Final 2018 Q.8D?

Activation energy can be negative if the rate decreases as temperature rises (not common). However, I do not believe we have had a problem with this case, so I personally would double check that answer if I got it.
