Chemistry · The effect of temperature on the rate of reactions, Arrhenius theory, activation energy and its calculation, collision theory of bi-molecular gaseous reactions (no derivation)
Which of the following rules states that with the increase of every temperature
Which of the following rules states that with the increase of every \( 10^{\circ} \mathrm{C} \) temperature the rate of metabolic activity gets doubled?
- A. Van't Hoff's rule
- B. Bergman's rule
- C. Allen's rule
- D. Jordon's rule
Step-by-step solution
Van't Hoff's rule, also known as the Q10 temperature coefficient, states that the rate of a chemical reaction doubles for every 10°C increase in temperature, which applies to metabolic reactions. Bergman's rule (body size), Allen's rule (appendage size), and Jordon's rule (fish vertebrae) are not related to temperature-metabolic rate doubling.
