How to use NIST to find activation energies
« on: February 17, 2024, 02:19:16 PM »
I need to find the activation energy of a reaction for a project, and decided to use the NIST database.

But the database gives what seems to be a lot of conflicting results.

What do I do?

Seems like the problem is not with the database itself, but with the published results.

I would consults several of the latest reviews to see how the data were treated/averaged/aggregated and then I would choose the one that I like the most.

Looks like at least some of the temperature ranges data are reasonably consistent.
