Chemical Kinetics

A B The molecule A changes into its isomeric form B by following a first order kinetics at a temperature of 1000 K. If the energy barrier with respect to reactant energy for such isomeric transformation is 191.48 kJ mol-1 and the frequency factor is 1020, the time required for 50\% molecules of A to become B is picoseconds (nearest integer). [R=8.314 J K-1 mol-1 ]
