The Arrhenius Equation
Quantifying the relationship between temperature, activation energy, and the rate constant.
Key Questions
- 1Why does a small increase in temperature lead to a large increase in reaction rate?
- 2How can we graphically determine the activation energy of a reaction?
- 3What role does the frequency factor play in molecular orientation during collisions?
