What is the effect of temperature on the rate constant of reaction? How can this temperature effect on the rate constant be represented quantitatively?

Explanation

The rate constant of a reaction increases with increase of temperature and becomes nearly double for every `10^(@)` rise of temperature. The effect can be represented quantitatively by Arrhenius equation,
`k="A e"^(-E_(a)//RT)`
where `E_(a)` represents the activation energy of the reaction and A represents the frequency factor.
