AS Level Chemistry: Increasing the temperature increases the rate of reaction because? (2)

Question

Increasing the temperature increases the rate of reaction because? (2)

Phillanie Jacobs · Accepted Answer

1. Increased energy results in particles moving around more quickly, which increases the frequency of collisions 
2. Proportion of successful collisions increases because the proportion of particles exceeding the activation energy increases
