Arrhenius Eq

Re: Arrhenius Eq
I don't think we ever did in lecture, but it is a useful equation to remember. A few of the textbook problems use it.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
It was also in some Sapling problems for week 9/10 I think. It's good to know although I'm not sure how much of it will be on the final. I'd familiarize myself with the basic uses of it just in case.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
It is on the equation sheet so I would try it out a few times and make sure you understand how to use it.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
It's on the equation sheet so I would think it would be good to understand for the exam. Hope this helps!
Re: Arrhenius Eq
Yeah i saw it in the sapling and I had no idea what it was. But I should most likely familiarize myself with it. thank you!!

Re: Arrhenius Eq
I dont know if it was ever specifically mentioned in lecture, but I would definitely remember it, it will be very useful for the final.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
I don't believe we explicitly went over this. I guess you could get it by deriving the lnk= -Ea/RT +lnA, but I would just try to remember the Arrhenius equation by itself so you don't have to try to derive it.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
It isn't covered in lecture but I know there was a couple Sapling problems as well as textbooks examples that used it so it might be helpful for a problem or two on the final.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
This equation is on the constants and equations sheet that we could use for tests, but we didn't really cover it in lecture.

Re: Arrhenius Eq
I think he briefly went over this in lecture, but the Arrhenius equation is really helpful. It's a really good way to relate k to activation energy. Make sure to note how Ea is related to k, R, and the temperature.
