Best answer

The rate constant of a reaction is nearly doubled with a 10° rise in temperature. However,
the exact dependence of the rate of a chemical reaction on temperature is given by Arrhenius equation,

Where,
A is the Arrhenius factor or the frequency factor
T is the temperature
R is the gas constant
Ea is the activation energy
