Chapter 12, Problem 21QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the increase in the rate of reaction with increase in temperature according to the collision theory is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Every reaction in this universe follows a particular pace. This particular rate at which reaction occurs is known as the rate of reaction. The conditions that affect the rate of reaction are temperature, reactant concentration, surface area, and catalyst.

For the formation of a particular product, the reactants have to collide in a particular orientation or effective orientation and at the same time, they have to cross the energy barrier for which they require activation energy.
