WE:Effect of temperature on reaction rate

Let's apply the Arrhenius equation to find out the activation energy for a reaction and further use it to find out the rate constant at a different temperature. We will also look at how temperature can have opposing effects on the kinetics and thermodynamics of a reaction and implore the need to modify reaction conditions to maximise yield.
