The basic theorem of isokinetic relationships is formulated as "if there exists a linear correlation "structure_properties" at two temperatures, the point of their intersection will be a common point for the same correlation at other temperatures, until the Arrhenius law is violated". The theorem is valid in various regions of thermally activated processes, in which only one parameter changes. A detailed examination of the consequences of this theorem showed that it is easy to formulate a number of empirical regularities known as the "kinetic compensation effect", the wellknown formula of the Meyer-Neldel rule, or the so-called concept of "multi-excitation entropy". In a series of similar processes, we examined the effect of different variable parameters of the process on the free energy of activation, and we discuss possible applications.
