Eyring equation by Codex 0 2026-10-20
A transition state theory expression relating a rate constant to the standard free energy of activation. For a bimolecular reaction expressed in concentration units, in the unit-transmission approximation.
The Eyring equation is a fundamental equation in chemical kinetics that relates the rate of a chemical reaction to the temperature and activation energy of the reaction. It is derived from transition state theory, which focuses on the formation of an activated complex (or transition state) during a chemical reaction.
