Integrated rate law equation for zero order reaction
$$ \text {(a) k } = \frac{[R]_{\,o}–[R] }{t} $$
Where :
k is rate constant ,
[R]o is initial molar concentration and
[R] is final concentration at time t.
$$ \text {(b) } t_{\, \frac{1}{2}} = \frac{[R]_{\,o}}{2k} $$ t1/2 is half life period of zero order reaction.
Integrated rate law equation for first order reaction
$$ \text {(a) k } = \frac{2.303}{t} \log \frac{[R]_{\,o} }{[R]} $$
Where:
k is rate constant and
[R]o is initial molar concentration and
[R] is final concentration at time t.
$$ \text {(b) } t_{\, \frac{1}{2}} = \frac{0.693}{k} $$t1/2 is half life period of first order reaction.
Arrhenius equation
$$ \text {(a) k } = Ae ^{-Ea/RT} $$
Where:
A is frequency factor,
Ea is the energy of activation,
R is universal gas contant and
T is absolute temperature.- Ea/RT gives the fraction of collisions having energy equal to or greater than Ea.
$$ \text {(b) } \log \frac{k _{\,2}}{k _{\,1}} = \frac{E _{\,a}}{2.303 R} ( \frac{T_{\,2} - T_{\,1}}{T_{\,1} T_{\,2}}) $$
Where:
k1 is rate constant at temperature T1 and
k2 is rate constant at temperature T2 .
