Hello everyone

i hope to help, i was sent my article to a journal and I got some revision

one of the reviewer comments was :

((According to Table 1, the value of corrosion rate (icorr) corresponds to the change of two parameters: temperature and Ecor. Thus, corrosion at different temperatures occurs under conditions of different potentials. To exclude the influence of two factors simultaneously - temperature and potential - the determination of the corrosion rate at different temperatures should be carried out under conditions of maintaining a constant potential. Therefore, it is incorrect to use the Arrhenius equation and the transition state equation at a changing value of Ecor. But since the author did not maintain the value of Ecor constant with a change in temperature, the values of Ea, ΔH and ΔS given in the article are not true, but are apparent or effective. The author must indicate this in the article”.))

why not I can use Arrhenius eq.?

i attach the data

I hope to help me with how I can reply to the reviewer??
