According to collision theory, why does increasing the concentration of reactants increase the reaction rate?
-
It lowers the activation energy.
-
It increases the average kinetic energy of the particles.
-
It increases the frequency of collisions between particles.
-
It shifts the equilibrium to the products.
📝 Detailed explanation
Higher concentration means more particles per unit volume, which leads to a higher probability and frequency of collisions per second.
