Given that the initial rate constant is 0.0110s−1 at an initial temperature of 21 ∘C , what would the rate constant be at a temp

gulaghasi [49]

The rate constant is mathematically given as

K2=2.67sec^{-1}

<h3>What is the Arrhenius equation?</h3>

The rate constant for a particular reaction may be calculated with the use of the Arrhenius equation. This constant can be stated in terms of two distinct temperatures, T1 and T2, as follows:

$ln(\frac{K2}{K1})= (\frac{Ea}{R})*(\frac{1}{T1}-\frac{1}{T2})$
