Interpretation:
The factor which decreases the
Concept introduction:
Rate of a reaction theoretically depends upon the collision frequency, collision energy, and collision orientation. The molecules should collide in proper orientation so that the reaction takes place. As the temperature increases, the collision frequency increases and the molecules collide with more energy. Therefore, rate of reaction increases.

Which of the following theoretical factors decreases the rate of a reaction? (a) decrease collision frequency (b) decrease collision energy (c) ineffective collision orientation
Which of the following affect the rate of a reaction: (a) K; (b) Ea; (c) temperature?
5. The collision theory of reaction rates states that the rate of a reaction depends on the number of collisions between mol-
ecules, the average energy of the collisions, and the effectiveness of the collisions. (a) How does temperature affect each
of these factors in collision theory? (b) Does the effect of temperature on the reaction rate support the collision theory of
reaction rates? Explain.
