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 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 |
