Question

value: 3
the more likely two molecules are to collide every second, the ______ the reaction rate will be

a. faster

b. slower

1/5

next >

Explanation:

In chemical kinetics, reaction rate depends on the frequency of molecular collisions. More frequent collisions (more likely to collide per second) lead to a faster reaction rate because collisions are necessary for reactions to occur (considering effective collisions with sufficient energy and correct orientation). So the correct option is a.

Answer:

a. faster
