Falsification of Rate Coefficients and Activation Energies by

7 FALSIFICATION OF RATE COEFFICIENTS AND ACTIVATION ENERGIES BY DIFFUSION LIMITATIONS 

The generalized modulus for an nth-order reaction derived in Example 3.6.2.A can be used to show how observed kinetic parameters are related to the intrinsic 

Weisz and Prater [1954] showed that over the entire range of, the falsified activation energy is given by 

Languasco, Cunningham, and Calvelo [1972] derived a similar relation for the falsified order  

From the shape of the effectiveness factor curves it is seen that the logarithmic slopes vary from 0 to -1, which yields the simple limits given above.
