Question

what are the factors that determine an effective collision ?

Answer 1

There are mainly two factors that determine an effective collision between two molecules. These factors are as follows

1-Reactions occur when two reactant molecules effectively collide, each having minimum energy and correct orientation.

2-Reactant concentration, the physical state of the reactants, and surface area, temperature, and the presence of a catalyst are the four main factors that affect reaction rate.
