A large increase in the rate of a reaction for a rise in temperature is due to

A

The decrease in the number of collision

B

The increase in the number of activated molecules

C

The shortening of the mean free path

D

The lowering of the activation energy

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b

The increase in collisions frequency brings in an increase in effective collisions and thus rate of reaction increases .
