Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the effect of increasing temperature on the rate of a chemical reaction according to collision theory?
  • Step 1: Understand that temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is.
  • Step 2: Know that molecules are tiny particles that make up everything around us.
  • Step 3: Realize that when temperature increases, the molecules move faster because they have more energy.
  • Step 4: Remember that for a chemical reaction to happen, molecules need to collide with each other.
  • Step 5: Understand that faster-moving molecules collide more often and with more force.
  • Step 6: Conclude that more frequent and effective collisions lead to a higher rate of reaction.
