Collision Theory

The rate of reaction has a list of factors: temperature, concentration and surface
area
...
If the
concentration of the reactants is increased (or the pressure is increased), the
reaction would be much faster
...
Collision theory explains about how the rate of
reaction depends on two key points:


- how often the reacting particles collide
...


When the temperature increases, the particles are going to move quicker, therefore
will collide more often
...
This makes collisions more
likely
...


Reactions can only take place if the particles have enough energy to collide with
other particles
...
Activation energy is the minimum energy
required for particles to react
...
There is direct proportion
between the rate of reaction and frequency of successful collisions
...
