The major difference between Rate Constant and Specific Rate Constant is that Rate Constant is a constant of proportionality in the rate Law Equation and is equal to the rate of reaction when the molar concentration of each reactant is unity while Specific Rate Constant ( Rate of Reaction) is the change in concentration of the reactant or product per unit time.

Dear Student
The value of the rate constant is temperature dependent. A large value of the rate constant means that the reaction is relatively fast, while a small value of the rate constant means that the reaction is relatively slow.
Good Luck
