The statistical method of least squares has been applied to the estimation of energy and entropy of activation when there is available a variable number of experimental values of the kinetic constant, at several temperatures.Furthermore, the method is described, by which the variances of the estimates can be calculated, and significance tests applied to them.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
