. How does an increase in temperature result in an increase in the number of successful collisions between reactant molecules? What does an increase in temperature mean on a molecular basis?
Interpretation:
The effect of an increase in temperature that results in an increase in the number of successful collisions between reactant molecules is to be stated. On a molecular basis, the meaning of an increase in temperature is to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The collision model assumes the molecules as hard spheres and the reaction between the molecules occur only when they collide with each other. Only those collisions are effective in which the colliding molecules possess a certain minimum amount of energy and collide with each other in a proper orientation.
The molecules react when they collide with each other according to collision model. Only those collisions are effective in which the colliding molecules possess a certain minimum amount of energy. Some collisions are very effective and violent enough to break the bonds of reactants. All the collisions are not strong enough to break the bonds. The minimum amount of energy that is required by a reaction to occur is known as the activation energy, denoted by
A reaction proceeds faster when the temperature of the reaction is increased
