Lesson: Chapter 17 — Rate of Reaction

17.1. The temperature 5 of 5

Question 5

Why is temperature more powerful than the other factors?

The right answer is the one marked above.

It raises both the number of collisions and their energy. So the proportion of collisions carrying enough energy goes up as well.

Surface area and concentration raise only the number of collisions. Temperature gives us both advantages at once.
