Abstract

A dimensionless parameter method used for studies of the thermokinetics of second-order reactions, with which the rate constant of reaction can be calculated from the thermogram's data without using the apparatus constants of the calorimeter, is proposed in this paper. The saponification of ethyl benzoate in aqueous alcohol and the nucleophilic substitution of benzyl chloride in aqueous DMSO solution have been studied. The rate constants calculated with this method are in fair agreement with that given in the literature.
