The rule of thumb I've heard is that for every 10 degrees C the reaction rate doubles, so from 10 to 100 degrees there should be nine doublings, or 512 times faster.

If a 10 degree upward push doubles the speed of reaction which potential going from 10 to at least one hundred is increasing by ninety or 9x10. it is comparable to doubling 9 circumstances so the answer is two^9 = 512 edit: FWIW your question is amazingly puzzling to envision. Temperature does no longer degree reaction fee; a fee could consistently be in line with unit time like J/s is fee of means change. I took it as "If a 10 degree Celcius upward push doubles the speed of reaction, what element could the speed develop by if the temperature is raised from 10 degrees Celcius to at least one hundred degrees Celcius?"

Nevermind that 10C doubling rule of thumb!
It depends on the type of reaction and whether other effects start occuring as you raise the temperature, such as byproducts, degradations, state of matter (phase) shifts, electrons being promoted to much different shells, volatilization, equilibria concentrations, etc.

In an ideal situation with ideal chemicals, you should look at it from a thermodynamics viewpoint with amount of energy (heat, not to be confused with temperature) going in, energy needed for activation of the reaction, and energy going out.as the product achieves stability. Sorry, but the answer is not simple without defining more specifics.

Previous answers are correct, sort of. The Q10 referred to is between 2 & 3 for most things. However, when you get up to 100 degrees C, you are talking about heat death, which has a Q10 in the thousands or tens of thousands. So there really is no answer to your question.
Note: I'm talking about biological systems, of course.
