Q. The rate of a chemical reaction doubles for every 10° rise in temperature. If the temperature increases by 60°, the rate of reaction increases

COMEDKCOMEDK 2014Chemical Kinetics

Solution:

For every 10° rise in temperature, the rate of a chemical reaction doubles thus, for 60° rise in temperature the rate of reaction increases by $(2)^6$ = 64 times.
