The effect of temperature on the corrosion behavior of copper in 2M nitric acid solution in the presence and absence of 5-(2,6-dichlorobenzyl)-6-methylpyridazin-3(2H)-one (P3) has been investigated by weight loss method. The inhibitory effect increases with increasing inhibitors concentration and decreases with rise of temperature from 303 to 343K. Adsorption follows the Langmuir isotherm with negative values of free enthalpy suggesting a spontaneous adsorption process. Other thermodynamic parameters such as, equilibrium constant, adsorption heat and adsorption entropy were obtained. The various parameters of activation determining the kinetic data such as energy, enthalpy and entropy at different concentrations of the inhibitor were evaluated and discussed.
