  Svante Arrhenius...SciPeeps.com
Svante August Arrhenius (February 19, 1859 - October 2, 1927) was a Swedish chemist and one of the founders of the science of physical chemistry.
Arrhenius was born at Vik (also spelled Wik or Wijk), near Uppsala, Sweden, the son of Svante Gustav and Carolina Thunberg Arrhenius.
Arrhenius declined, however, as he preferred to stay in Sweden for a while (his father was very ill and would die in 1885) and had gotten an appointment at Uppsala.

 Arrhenius Concept
Svante Arrhenius, a Swedish chemist who received a Nobel prize in 1903 for his work on electrolytes, focused on what ions were formed when acids and bases dissolved in water.
If the salt is soluble, it won't show up in the net ionic equation, but the ions are there in solution as spectator ions.
Arrhenius focused on the idea that acids and bases split into ions when they dissolved in water.

 Arrhenius Relationship Introduction   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
It is derived from the Arrhenius reaction rate equation proposed by the Swedish physical chemist Svandte Arrhenius in 1887.
The Arrhenius life-stress model is formulated by assuming that life is proportional to the inverse reaction rate of the process, thus the Arrhenius life-stress relationship is given by:
Since the Arrhenius is a physics-based model derived for temperature dependence, it is strongly recommended that the model be used for temperature accelerated tests.

Arrhenius observed that when a process such as material creep, cracking, certain chemical reactions, or diffusion is driven by temperature, the process progresses through a gradual state change.
Using only the short term data (Table 1 data only), the Arrhenius equation (1) was used to extrapolate the short term data and predict the time-to-crack for the 11-day test at lower temperature.
The Arrhenius relation should not be used indiscriminately for all time/temperature-related extrapolations, but it does seem to work well with ESC and creep.

The Arrhenius Equation can also be depicted graphically by using a log scale for time and an inverse Kelvin scale for temperature.
Using an Arrhenius graph, the relationship between temperature and lifetimes can be identified by plotting the median lives.
The slope from this graph is the exponent in the electromigration equation, sometimes called "n" or the "n factor." This is called the "J exponent." For silicon devices, this J exponent is often considered a constant which is fixed at 1 or 2.

Failure mechanisms that are well suited for modeling with the Arrhenius equation include intermetallic growth, corrosion, metal migration, void formation, and dielectric breakdown.
While there has been a move towards performance-based reliability assessment, reliability estimates based on the steady state Arrhenius equation are still ingrained in the development of electronics.

It's a big jump from GCSE Maths to the Arrhenius equation, and so you can be forgiven for finding the connection difficult to follow.
There are many reasons for this, including the very practical one that, if you have a set of experimental results and you know that they are related by a straight line graph, it is relatively easy to choose the best straight line to draw.
First of all, let's be clear about what the various terms mean in the equation: y = mx + c.
