How does an increase in temperature result in an increase in the number of successful collisions between reactant molecules? What does an increase in temperature mean on a molecular basis?
As the temperature is increased the average kinetic energy of the molecules is increased. So at higher temperatures the collisions are more energetic and the probability that the collisions are energetic enough to break the bonds and produce molecular rearrangements needed for a reaction to occur. On a molecular basis increase in temperature mean increase in the speed of the molecule.

So remember, in collision theory three things their states. We need to have a reaction. Let's say, for instance, were describing the reaction A and B becoming a B first thing you need is an be to collide. We need them to collide in the right orientation. So that means like if there's certain functional groups that need to react, they need to be near each other. And finally the ancient react with enough energy to break the activation energy barrier. And so here were asked to consider, um, how temperature will affect this. And so an increase in temperature in order some standard, that is, we need to know that temperature is really just a way of describing the average kinetic energy of the molecules within a system which the kinetic energy is equal to 1/2 and the square. And so everything about this temperature is the same as saying, Can't Angie at leave the average connect country of molecules? So this increases. And so if this over here is increasing, the mass is constant for the molecules, the velocity this speed at which the molecules within this reaction make sure moving increases whenever the temperature increases. So what would be the result of molecules moving more quickly? Well, first of all, they're going to collide more often, which is good. That will increase the reaction right. And they're more likely to have enough energy to have more energy than the activation energy. And so, whenever you increase the temperature, these two factors get, ah, increased. And so we're gonna have the rate of reaction also increase, and so
