Arrhenius equation gives the relation between Rate constant K with Temperature T.
                \mathrm{K}=\mathrm{A} \mathrm{e}^{-(\mathrm{Ea} / \mathrm{RT})}
Given that at \mathrm{T}=25^{\circ} \mathrm{C},
                     \mathrm{ A=2 x, E a=10 x, K=x }
Hence, at \mathrm{\mathrm{T} \rightarrow \infty}
\mathrm{K= (2 x) e^{-(10 x / \infty)} \\}

\mathrm{ \Rightarrow K=(2 x) \cdot e^0 \\}

\mathrm{ \Rightarrow K=2 x}
