Q1015

The influence of temperature on reaction rate is predicted by

A.
Van der Waals equation
B.
Kirchhoff's equation
C.
Arrhenius equation
Answer
D.
Lewis equation

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
The main reason that temperature increases the rate of reaction is that more of the colliding particles will have the necessary activation energy resulting in more successful collisions (when bonds are formed between reactants). The influence of temperature is described by the Arrhenius equation.
