Consider the following chemical reaction between nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide:

NO2(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO2(g)

The rate constant for the reaction at 701 K was measured to be 2.57 M–1•s–1, while that at 895 K was measured to be 567 M–1•s–1. Calculate the activation energy (in kJ/mol) for the reaction.
