It may be expected that rate of reaction is equal to rate of collision.

Vedclass · Answer

(B) According to collision theory,not every collision between reactant molecules leads to a chemical reaction. Only those collisions that possess energy greater than the threshold energy and have proper orientation result in a product.For gas phase reactions,the calculated number of collisions is much higher than the observed rate of reaction.Therefore,the statement that it may be expected that the rate of reaction is equal to the rate of collision is the correct premise for the theory's development before accounting for the steric factor and activation energy.

Which of the following is true for a reaction as per collision theory?

What is the activation energy for a reaction if its rate doubles when the temperature is raised from $20 \,^{\circ}C$ to $35 \,^{\circ}C$ in $kJ \,mol^{-1}$? $(R = 8.314 \,J \,mol^{-1} \,K^{-1})$

For an exothermic reaction $A \rightarrow B$,the activation energy is $15 \, K \, cal/mol$ and the heat of reaction is $5 \, K \, cal/mol$. The activation energy for the reverse reaction $B \rightarrow A$ will be ......... $K \, cal/mol$.

The rate constant of a reaction at $500 \ K$ and $700 \ K$ are $0.02 \ s^{-1}$ and $0.2 \ s^{-1}$ respectively. The activation energy of the reaction (in $kJ \ mol^{-1}$) is $(R=8.3 \ J \ K^{-1} \ mol^{-1})$

Which of the following graphs of $\log \, K \rightarrow 1/T$ can be used to calculate the activation energy?

The rate of a reaction can be expressed by the Arrhenius equation as:
$k = A e^{-E_a / RT}$
In this equation,$E_a$ represents:
