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

A

The decreases in the number of collisions

B

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