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

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) The rate constant of a reaction increases with increase in temperature.
(ii) It becomes nearly double for every `10^(@)C` rise in temp. -, .cording to Arrhenius equation
`K = Ae ^( - Ea//RT) ` Where Ea - Activation energy , A= Frequency facter.
