The effective collisions between the reactant molecules at higher temperatures ________.

A

Increase

B

Decrease

C

Remains same

D

First increase then decrease

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
The effective collisions between the reactant molecules at higher temperatures increase. At higher temperature randomness increases and molecules moves with a faster velocity which results in more collision between the reactants.

    According to collision theory of chemical reactions, rate of a reaction depends upon collision frequency and fraction of effective collisions. The rate of a reaction generally increases with rise in temperature mainly because of increase in number of effective collisions. Arrhenius proposed a quantitative relation between rate constant and temperature as k= Ae^(-E_a//Rt) where E_a is activation energy. It is equal to the difference between threshold energy and average kinetic energy of reacting molecules. Which of the following plot will be linear ?

    Chemical reaction occurs as a result of collisions between reacting molecules. Therefore, the reaction rate is given by

    Why does the rate of photosynthesis decrease at higher temperatures?

    Differentiate between an atom and a molecule.

    What is the effect of temperature on the rate constant of a reaction ? How can this temperature effect on the rate constant be represented quantitatively ?

    Assertion: Most probable velocity is the velocity possessed by maximum fraction of molecules at the same temperature. Reason: On collision, more and more molecules acquire higher speed at the same temperature.

    Assertion (A): The endothermic reactions are favoured at lower temperature and the exothermic reactions are favoured at higher temperature. Reason (R ) : when a system in equilibrium is disturbed by changing the temperature, it will tend to adjust itself so as to overcome the effect of the change.
