The decomposition of acetaldehyde (x) to methane and carbon monoxide follow four step free radical mechanism. The overall rate of decomposition of X is,  Where

K1, K2, K3 denotes the rate constant of the elementary steps with corresponding activation energy (in KJ/mol) of 320,40 and 0 respectively. The temperature dependency of the rate constant is described by Arrhenius equation. Cx denotes the concentration of a acetaldehyde. The rate constant for the overall reaction is Koverall . The activation energy for the overall reaction (in KJ/mol) is ____
