Hi everyone

I've just been looking through my notes today and i found this eqn and i dont know what it is for or what K and delta Ho refer to. A bit of an explanation would be a brilliant help.

ln(KT1/KT2)=(-deltaH0/R)(1/T2-1/T1)

it's actually the ratio of rate constant using the natural logarithm of arrhenius equation at two different temperature.
