### Re: Arrhenius Equation

With factors like temperature, frequency of collisions, catalyst presence, and activation energy, you can determine the rate of reaction.

### Re: Arrhenius Equation

It relates the equilibrium constant, k, to temperature, activation energy, and A. Given any 3 of these, you could find the other variable.

### Re: Arrhenius Equation

Through graphing the Arrhenius equation, we can see that the slope of the Arrhenius plot is proportional to the activation energy. A higher activation energy indicates a stronger temperature dependence of the rate constant.
