Detailed Description

Blowers Masel reaction rate type depends on the enthalpy of reaction.

The Blowers Masel approximation [3] adjusts the activation energy based on enthalpy change of a reaction:

\begin{eqnarray*} E_a &=& 0\; &\text{if }\Delta H < -4E_0 \\ E_a &=& \Delta H\; &\text{if }\Delta H > 4E_0 \\ E_a &=& \frac{(w + \Delta H / 2)(V_P - 2w + \Delta H)^2}{(V_P^2 - 4w^2 + (\Delta H)^2)}\; &\text{otherwise} \end{eqnarray*}

where

\[ V_P = \frac{2w (w + E_0)}{w - E_0}, \]

\( w \) is the average bond dissociation energy of the bond breaking and that being formed in the reaction. Since the expression is very insensitive to \( w \) for \( w >= 2 E_0 \), \( w \) can be approximated to an arbitrary high value like 1000 kJ/mol.

After the activation energy is determined by Blowers-Masel approximation, it can be plugged into Arrhenius function to calculate the rate constant.

\[ k_f = A T^b \exp (-E_a/RT) \]
