Please show your work.Teemo said:I plugged in the activation energies into the equation to see the changes in rate at different temperatures, but I can't solve for the one that is 4x the rate at 100 degrees.
The rate of reaction increases as the temperature increases. This is because at higher temperatures, particles have more kinetic energy, allowing them to move and collide more frequently and with more force, resulting in a higher rate of successful collisions and therefore a faster reaction.
An increase in temperature decreases the activation energy needed for a reaction to occur. This is because at higher temperatures, particles have more kinetic energy and are able to overcome the energy barrier required for a reaction to take place.
Yes, each reaction has an optimal temperature at which it will occur at the fastest rate. This temperature is known as the "reaction rate constant" and can be determined experimentally.
Yes, the rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the temperature. This means that a change in temperature will result in a corresponding change in the rate of the reaction.
Temperature can affect the equilibrium of a reaction by shifting it in either the forward or reverse direction. An increase in temperature will favor the endothermic reaction, while a decrease in temperature will favor the exothermic reaction.
