Question

A chemical reaction features a fixed Temperature Coefficient ($\mu$) precisely equal to $2$. If the internal temperature of the reactor is rapidly elevated from $20^\circ 	ext{C}$ to $70^\circ 	ext{C}$, by what exact integer multiplier will the absolute overall rate of the reaction increase?

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The temperature coefficient () dictates the rate multiplier for every clean temperature jump. A shift from to encompasses exactly five distinct jumps (). Thus, the overall compounded rate multiplier is exactly .
