When two molecules collide at room temperature, which of the following is not one of the possible results? They will simply move away from each other again, unchanged. O They will form an activated complex, which will then lead to products. O They will fuse, forming one atom, which will then rearrange its protons to create new products. The molecules will not have the correct orientation for the collision to be effective.

Use the postulates of the collision theory to explain temperature and physical states of the reactants.
Increasing the temperature of the reactants increases the fraction of the reacting species that collide with energies equal to or greater than the free energy/activation energy. Another factor that can affect whether or not molecules react is their orientation/bond length toward one another when they collide. Molecules with incorrect bond lengths/orientations will not react even if they successfully collide.

The yeast in bread dough feeds on sugar to produce carbon dioxide. Why does the dough rise faster in a warmer area? O The activation energy has been increased. O There are a greater number of effective collisions among reacting molecules at the higher temperature than at the lower temperature. O Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing temperature.
