First, let us define a new partition coefficient q+, by:
(7.39)
In equation (7.39) is the partition function for the translation of A toward BC and q+ is the partition function for all of the other modes of the reacting A-B-C complex.

where qt is the translational partition function for a single translational mode of a molecule, m is the mass of the molecule, kB is Boltzmann’s constant, T is temperature, and hP is Plank’s constant. For our particular reaction, the fluorine can translate in three directions; the H2 can translate in three directions; the transition state can translate in three directions.

Summary: Transition State Theory Makes Two Corrections To Collision
Theory
34
1.Transition state theory uses the transition state diameter rather than the collision diameter in the calculation.
2.Transition state theory multiplies by two extra terms: the ratio of the vibrational partition function, and the electronic partition function for the transition state, and the reactants.
