According to Arrhenius is equation
\mathrm{\begin{gathered} k=A e^{-E a / R T} \\ \log k=\log A ^{\frac{-E a}{{2.3 R T}}} \end{gathered} }
\mathrm{E a_1 }= for the adsorption of hydrogen on platinum, the activation energy. 
\mathrm{E a_2 }= for the adsorption of hydrogen on nickel, the activation energy.
\mathrm{E_{a_2}-E_{a_1}=55-22=33 }
\mathrm{\begin{aligned} \log \left(\frac{k_1}{k^2}\right)=\frac{E a_2-E a_1}{2.3 R T} & =\frac{33 \times 100}{2.3 \times 8.3 \times 300} \\ & =5.76 \end{aligned} }
