ARRHENIUS EQUATION :
k = A e -Ea / RT OR
Arrhenius factor is the frequency of molecular collisions occurring between the molecules.
Log k = log A – Ea / 2.303 RT

Estimation of energy of activation: *** Sloped-apa explain all of that
Activation energy is the minimum energy that a molecule should possess so that the molecular
collisions produce the product.
A graph can be drawn by taking log k on y-axis and reciprocal temperature (1/T) on x-axis.
A straight line is obtained, the slope of the line is negative and the magnitude is Ea / 2.303 R.
All the constants in the Arrhenius equation can be obtained from the graph.

Limitations:
• Limited to temperature.
• Result applied to 1 set of preparation cannot applied to other preparation.
• Stability studies based on T is of NO USE if the degradation is due to other
reasons.(Microbial, diffusion or physical).
• Prediction become erroneous of the ORDER changes on HIGHER T.
• Prediction become erroneous of the order changes on when prep. studied.
