This value is often determined experimentally by finding the reaction rate at different temperatures, then plotting the logarithm of the rate constant against the reciprocal of temperature and finding the slope of the line of best fit. A relatively low value of this indicates that a greater proportion of colliding reactants will result in reactions. It appears in the numerator of the exponent of the Arrhenius equation, and catalysts work by lowering this value for particular reactions. Name this value denoted as E-sub-A, that measures the minimum energy needed for a reaction to occur.
