Explain the rate of bacterial hydrolysis of fish muscle

Reference no: EM13160279

The rate of bacterial hydrolysis of fish muscle is twice as great at 2.2 degrees C as at -1.1 degrees C. Determine the activation energy for this reaction. I know I'm supposed to use ln(k2/k1)=(Ae/R)(1/T1-1/T2) but how do I know the rate constant to plug into the formula?
