Answer 1

Arrhenius
hope it will help

Answer 2

Answer:

(D) Arrhenius

Explanation:

• In 1889, Svante Arrhenius proposed an equation which is known as the Arrhenius equation. It explained the reaction rate constant of a reaction is dependent on its temperature.
• $k=Ae^{\frac{-E_{a}}{RT} }$

where,

k is the rate constant

T is the absolute temperature

R is the universal gas constant

$E_{a}$ is the activation energy

A is the steric or the frequency factor.

• Thus according to the Arrhenius equation, the rate of reaction will increase if we increase the temperature of the reaction.
