State the Arrhenius equation, and use it to calculate the effect on the rate constant of an increase in temperature from 10°C to 35°C for a reaction with an activation

energy of 80 kJ mol·'. b) Describe the main features of the transition state theory of reaction rates, including a full explanation of the terms in the Eyring equation for a bimolecular rate constant (k2): \mathrm{k}_{2}=\mathrm{K} \times \frac{\mathrm{kT}}{\mathrm{h}} \times \mathrm{K}^{\dagger} c) Describe the underlying thermodynamic parameters that determine the reaction profile, and explain the relationship between the Eyring equation and the Arrhenius equation. ) The temperature-dependence of the activity of a Ca2+-ATPase was measured with the following results. The activity is expressed in arbitrary units. (e) Comment on the implications of the data for the reaction mechanism.
