- the energy above which all the colliding molecules will react
- the energy below which colliding molecules will not react
- the total energy of the reacting molecules at a temperature, T
- the fraction of molecules with energy greater than the activation energy of the reaction
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B

Concepts Used:
Rate of a Chemical Reaction
The rate of a chemical reaction is defined as the change in concentration of any one of the reactants or products per unit time.
Consider the reaction A → B,
Rate of the reaction is given by,
Rate = −d[A]/ dt=+d[B]/ dt
Where, [A] → concentration of reactant A
[B] → concentration of product B
(-) A negative sign indicates a decrease in the concentration of A with time.
(+) A positive sign indicates an increase in the concentration of B with time.
Factors Determining the Rate of a Reaction:
There are certain factors that determine the rate of a reaction:
- Temperature
- Catalyst
- Reactant Concentration
- Chemical nature of Reactant
- Reactant Subdivision rate
