COLLISION THEORY

For a reaction between two particles to occur, the

particles must collide and the collision must be effective

How do the
reaction occur? Activation Energy

Must have enough Must achieve minimum

energy energy
Have the right
orientation of
collisions
Lead to a chemical
reaction known as
EFFECTIVE COLLISIONS

The lower the The lower

activation energy, the activation energy

Factor that Affects Rate Of Reaction

The smaller the size of

reactant, the total surface
The frequency of collisions
area exposed to the
between particles increase
collision is larger
The higher the
concentration of reactants,
The frequency of effective
the number of particles in a
collisions between particles
unit volume is higher
increases
The higher the
temperature, the kinetic
energy of the particles is
The rate of reaction
higher
increases
