Question 7

What will be the effect of temperature on rate constant?

Answer

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 = Ae - Ea / RT

Where,

A is the Arrhenius factor or the frequency factor

T is the temperature

R is the gas constant

Ea is the activation energy
