Which statement best describes the Collision theory?


Sagot :

Answer:

Collision theory states that for a chemical reaction to occur, the reacting particles must collide with one another. The rate of the reaction depends on the frequency of collisions. The theory also tells us that reacting particles often collide without reacting.Collision theory states that: “In order to have a chemical reaction two particles must collide with (1) a combined energy greater than the activation energy, and (2) the correct orientation.” So in order to prevent dangerous reactions from happening, storing the reactants in separate containers are advisable
