The collision theory of chemical reactions states that:
Â
Â
Reactions can only occur when reactant particles collide with sufficient energy.
Â
All collisions between reactant particles result in a chemical reaction.
Â
Temperature has no effect on the rate of a reaction.
The rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of reactants.
