Calorimetric Measurement of the Kinetics of Slow Reactions

“…Much effort has been expended to develop methods for the simultaneous determination of the rate law and its temperature dependence by temperature scanning calorimetry. Such an approach has both theoretical and experimental difficulties. − Resolution of many of these difficulties has occurred only recently. − Thus, rate laws derived from temperature scanning methods must be regarded with skepticism, particularly from older literature. Further discussion of this topic is beyond the scope of this review.…”
