Answer #1

   Ea   = 100KJ/mole

Ea     = 100000J/mole

T1 = 35+273 = 308K

T2   = 50 + 273 = 323K

logK2/K1    =   Ea/2.303R [1/T1 -1/T2]

logK2/K1     = 100000/2.303*8.314[1/308 -1/323]

logK2/K1    = 5222.7(0.00325-0.00309)

logK2/K1    = 0.8356

K2/K1    = 10^0.8356

K2/K1   = 6.85

K2/K1   = 6.85

K2     = 6.85 K1

K2 is increases 6.85 times greater than K1
