QUESTION 16 Why don't all collisions with enough energy lead to reaction? Some collisions do not transfer the right amount of energy. The collisions must also have the correct orientation. Some of the collisions have the wrong electron configuration. Some of the collisions lead to other reactions.

Which of the following statements is false. Catalysts make a reaction rate go faster by providing a different route for the same reaction to proceed that requires less input energy. Increasing the concentration increases the rate of a reaction because more molecules are available in the same amount of space leading to more collisions with the correct orientation. Adding energy increases the rate of a reaction because more collisions happen with enough energy to break the bonds. Increasing the pressure by adding an inert gas increases the rate of reaction by causing more collisions.
