The rate of a reaction ((dx)/(dt)) varies with nature, physical state and concentration of reactants, temperature, exposure to light and catalyst, whereas rate constant (K) varies with temperature and catalyst only. The rate constant K is given as K=Ae^(pmE_(a)//RT)where A is Arrhenius parameter or pre-exponential factor and E_(a) is energy of activation. The minimum energy required for a reaction is called threshold energy and the additional energy required by reactant molecules to attain threshold energy level is called energy of activation. At what conditions exponential factor is 1 for a reaction: |
