Where Arrhenius Equation Comes From?
Can anyone explain to me/summarize where exactly the Arrhenius equation comes from? I am a bit confused as to how it is derived and would like to understand what is the actual chemistry behind it.

The Arrhenius equation was obtained by analyzing data from experiments on the kinetics of chemical reactions.
It is therefore an empirical equation based on experimental data and was not derived.
Hence I did not derive it in class.
