For the first order reaction AB+C\text{A} \rightarrow \text{B} + \text{C}, carried out at 27C27^\circ\text{C}, if 3.8×1016%3.8 \times 10^{-16}\% of the reactant molecules can overcome the energy barrier, the EaE_a (activation energy) of the reaction is

[Given: log3.8=0.58\log 3.8 = 0.58, 2.303×8.314×17.42=333.332.303 \times 8.314 \times 17.42 = 333.33]
