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.

3. According to the collision theory, what are the two reasons why rates of most reactions increase with increasing temperature.
Chemical reactions occur when reactants collide. What are two factors that may prevent a collision from producing a chemical reaction? One factor that may prevent a collision from producing a chemical reaction is that the reactants could be moving too slow. If the reactants are moving too slow, there may not be enough kinetic energy for it to exceed the activation energy. Another factor that may prevent a collision from producing a chemical reaction is the orientation of the reactants. If the orientation is off, the reactants will not collide in the correct manner to create the products that are needed in the equation. The correct orientation ensures that there is direct contact between the reactants in the equation.
