  • Arrhenius plots are just another addition this Nobel prize winning Swedish scientist brought to Chemistry. In this video you will find out how to calculate activation energy and the Arrhenius constant using an Arrhenius plot. Yes.. y=mx+c makes an appearance.

    Just wanted to say, I'm an A2 student (OCR) and need an A for uni. Thank you so much for doing these videos and putting in such effort. Honestly you are an amazing teacher, you make things simple to understand whilst making sure we understand why and how it works as well as just being able to do it which is really important for remembering in exams. So thank you so much. You make this so understandable in 14 minutes when at college I was struggling for 2 hours! Amazing teaching skills.

    I was just wondering why in the part for the calculation of the activation energy you put..........
    - (-11,300x8.31) whereas you didn’t put a minus in front of the bracket in the calculation for A?
    Why wouldn’t it be -4= -(-1.1/0.1x10^3)?
    Sorry if it’s a silly question!

  • @mohammadmiah9727
    @mohammadmiah9727 ปีที่แล้ว

    there is another way to calculate A because its the y intercept if the line is extrapolated u can get a figure of A on the y-axis however the risk is if you are a decimal off, the result is a complete different answer

    @swiftietay99 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hiya! I was just wondering.. You know the last example in this video? It's so much more complex than the only one in my textbook.. And another textbook for the same spec doesn't have arrhenius at all! So where did you find this/do you have anymore/ did you make it up? And do you know if the AQA spec this year requires this difficulty of question because we can't find any hard examples more complex than rearranging. No gradient working out etc. 😕 thank you so much if you can help xx

    • @AlleryChemistry
      @AlleryChemistry  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes you will need to know both. The spec requires you to know how to use Arrhenius Equation. This leaves it open for them to ask questions using an equation or graph. They are just using 2 different ways. I just made up the questions as there are very few questions available, it is very new to majority of boards.

      @lucahervada3697 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@fatimaa8770 It was -Ea/R initially, so to save some time in rearranging the equation later on, he minused a minus. -Ea = -11000*8.31. Hence Ea=-(-11000*8.31). Multiplying both sides by -1 to cancel the minus on Ea.

  • @physchemwithliz5879
    @physchemwithliz5879 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi :) If we calculate A from a point on the graph, A is dependent on temperature, so wouldn't we get a different value of A from each of the three points (because of the different temperatures)? And when I use the actual y intercept to get A, I get a different value altogether. If we extrapolate your line back to the y intercept, it would be something like -3, so e^(-3) = 0.050 I'm probably missing something obvious. Help, I'm confused haha

    • @mcrrocks897
      @mcrrocks897 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      If y = mx + c, and lnk = lnA - Ea/RT, y = lnk, c = lnA, and what's left is -Ea/RT. -Ea/RT can be re-written in the format -Ea/R * 1/T, as when they're multiplied, they form -Ea/RT. The mx, can therefore be assigned as x = 1/T (which is why it forms the x axis), making m (or the gradient) be equal to -Ea/R.
