Test of the formal basis of Arrhenius law with heat capacities

Abstract: The exponential factor of Arrhenius satisfactorily quantifies the energetic restriction of chemical reactions but is still awaiting a rigorous basis. By assuming that the Arrhenius equation should be grounded on statistical mechanics and is probabilistic in nature, two structures are compared for this equation, depending on whether reactant energies are envisioned as the mean values of specific energy distributions, or as particular levels in a global energy distribution. In the first version, the Arrhenius ex… Show more

“…What is more, the classic Arrhenius form of reaction rate constants is defined as follows where k , A , T , n , E , and R are the reaction rate constant, pre-exponential factor, temperature, power exponent, activation energy at 0 K, and gas constant, respectively.…”

“…However, both approaches have different interpretations of the kinetic parameters, but they are both based upon the Boltzmann statistical theory of energy distribution. Furthermore, Michel [64,65] connects the statistical theory for kinetics to thermodynamics through a probabilistic rate theory and solves what the author calls the "inconsistencies of the theories".…”
