Effect of temperature on rate of reaction |
Answer» For endothermic reactions:On increasing temperature- rate of reaction increases On decreasing temperature- rate of reaction decresesFor exothermic reaction:On increasing temperature- rate of reaction decreses On decreasing temperature- rate of reaction increases<br>The rate of reaction increases considerably with an increase in temperature.The rates of many reactions are approximately doubled or tripled for every 10oC rise in temperature.The temperature coefficient of a chemical reaction is defined as the ratio of the specific reaction rates of a reaction at two temperature differing by 10oC.μ = Temperature coefficient= k(r+10)/kt | |
