Arrhenius Flashcards
1
Q
What is the Arrhenius equation?
A
K = Ae ^(-Ea/RT)
2
Q
What does lnK equal?
A
lnK = lnA - (Ea/RT) (y = c + mx)
3
Q
What does a higher activation energy mean for rate?
A
higher ae, slower rate of reaction
4
Q
How do you find Ea from a graph?
A
Ea = -gradient x R
5
Q
As temperature rises…
A
K increases
6
Q
What are the x and y axis?
A
y = lnK , x = 1/T
