The Arrhenius equation
Quantitative treatment of the effect of temperature on k
ln k = ln A - Ea/R (1/T)
k = the kinetic rate constant at T
Ea = the activation energy
R = the universal gas constant
T = Kelvin temperature
A = collision frequency factor
k = Ae -Ea/RT
e = base of natural logarithms
y = b + mx
