Q15Multiple choice
Which of the following statements is incorrect about the collison theory of chemical reaction?
- (i)It considers reacting molecules or atoms to be hard spheres and ignores their structural features.
- (ii)Number of effective collisions determines the rate of reaction.
- (iii)Collision of atoms or molecules possessing sufficient threshold energy results into the product formation.
- (iv)Molecules should collide with sufficient threshold energy and proper orientation for the collision to be effective.
Show answer
