The influence of temperature on reaction rate is predicted by

Correct answer: C. Arrhenius Equation

  • A. Collision theory
  • B. Van der Waal's Equation
  • C. Arrhenius Equation
  • D. Kinetic Equation

Explanation

The Arrhenius equation relates the rate constant of a reaction to the temperature and activation energy of the reaction. It describes the exponential relationship between the rate constant (k), temperature (T), and activation energy (Ea) of a chemical reaction. Specifically, it states that the rate constant increases exponentially with increasing temperature.

About Reaction Kinetics

Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
