Explanation / Answer

The plot will be ln(k) Versus (1/T) [Arrhenius equation]
so, point 1 will be [ 1/325 , ln(0.372) ] = [3.0769*10-3, -0.9888]
point 2 will be, [ 1.9047*10-3, -0.2319]
Rise = -0.2319-(-0.9888) = 0.7569
Run = -1.1722*10-3
slope = rise / run = 0.7569 / (-1.1722*10-3) = -645.7089
-Ea / R = -645.7089
Ea = 8.314 * 645.7089 = 5368.4239 J/mol
