What will be effect of temperature on rate constant ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Rate constant of a reaction is nearly doubled with rise in temperature by `10^(@)`. The exact dependence of the rate constant on temperature is given by Arrhenius equation,` k="A e"^(-E_(a)//RT)` where A is called frequency factor and `E_(a)` is the activation energy of the reaction.
