Journal ArticleDOI
The Activated Complex in Chemical Reactions
TL;DR: In this paper, the probability of the activated state is calculated using ordinary statistical mechanics, and the probability multiplied by the rate of decomposition gives the specific rate of reaction, and necessary conditions for general statistical treatment to reduce to the usual kinetic treatment are given.
Journal ArticleDOI
Viscosity, Plasticity, and Diffusion as Examples of Absolute Reaction Rates
TL;DR: The theory of reaction rates yields an equation for absolute viscosity applicable to cases involving activation energies where the usual theory of energy transfer does not apply as mentioned in this paper, which provides an explanation of the law of rectilinear diameters of Cailletet and Mathias.
Journal ArticleDOI
Absolute Rate Theory for Isolated Systems and the Mass Spectra of Polyatomic Molecules.
TL;DR: This theory permits the discussion and coordination of a large amount of the available data in terms of the structure of molecules and ions and should also be applicable to other problems involving isolated systems having a large but finite number of degrees of freedom.
