Increasing the temperature of a reaction increases the speed at which the reaction occurs. Identify the statements that explain the correlation between the increase in temperature and the increase in reaction rate. More atom-atom stretching and bending within the molecules occurs at higher temperatures, which creates more reactive molecular configurations. Added heat decreases the activation energy of a reaction and has a similar effect as adding a catalyst. ✔Molecules at higher temperatures have greater kinetic energy, which results in more frequent and higher energy collisions. An increased temperature improves the reaction pathway by decreasing the energy difference between reactants and products.
