A correction to this equation includes a constant Q, a function of mass and the barrier width, when quantum tunneling is possible.
A correction to this equation includes a constant Q, a function of mass and the barrier width, when quantum tunneling is possible. The concentration of crystal defects is modelled by this equation. A microscopic version of this equation uses a transmission coefficient, multiplied by Boltzmann's constant times temperature over Planck's constant. On a linear plot generated from this equation, the x-axis is one over temperature, and the y-intercept is the log of the product of the (*) collision frequency and the steric factor. An increase of temperature of 10 degrees causes the left side of this equation to approximately double. For 10 points, name this equation which gives the reaction rate constant as a function of temperature, named for a Swedish chemist.
