Answer to Problem 26SSC
Specific rate constant is not a constant if reaction is not isothermal and larger the value of k, faster the rate of reaction.
Explanation of Solution
In a rate law equation, the k is specific rate constant which is a numerical value that relates concentration of reactants with the reaction rate at a given temperature. The k is unique for every reaction and have units, such as
Temperature dependence of a reaction can be explained by specific rate constant.
