Collision theory : in order for reaction to occur, particles must collide each other and particles must have

sufficient energy to start reaction ( E>Ea)

Produce more successful collision: particles have more E and lower Ea

Why increasing temperature can increase rate of reaction: by increasing temperature, particles have
more Kinetic energy, move faster, more successful collisions, and greater proportion of molecules have
E>Ea

Produce more frequent collision: particles have greater speed, and more particles present

Why increasing concentration can increase rate of reaction: increasing concentration, more particles
present,collide easier and faster, more frequent collisions

Why increase surface are can increase rate of reaction? More particles are exposed at the surface, more
frequent collisions

Why catalyst can increase rate of reaction: can lower activation energy and providing alternative
pathway, greater proporion of molecules have E>Ea, more successful collisions.
