Question:
What will be the effect of temperature on rate constant?
Solution:
The rate constant of a reaction is nearly doubled with a 10° rise in temperature. However, the exact dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction on temperature is given by Arrhenius equation,
$k=\mathrm{Ae}^{-E \mathrm{a} / R T}$
Where,
A is the Arrhenius factor or the frequency factor
T is the temperature
R is the gas constant
Ea is the activation energy
