The thermal decomposition of diethyl ether was studied in the temperature range 697.2–760.5 K. The rate constant of reaction (1), and the ratio of the rate constant of reaction (2) to that of (12):were calculated from the amounts of products:\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \log k_1 ({\rm s}^{{\rm - 1}}) = (17.2 \pm 0.6) - (82.4 \pm 2.0{\rm kcal mol}^{{\rm - 1}})/2.3RT $$\end{document}\documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \log k_2 /k_{12^{1/2} } ({\rm dm}^{{\rm 3/2}} {\rm mol}^{{\rm - 1/2}}) = (4.1 \pm 0.4) - (11.9 \pm 1.3{\rm kcal mol}^{{\rm - 1}})/2.3RT $$\end{document}
