According to collision theory, what must reactant collisions have for a reaction to occur?
A.Enough energy and correct orientation
B.Equal masses
C.Opposite charges
D.High pressure only
Explanation
Core Concept
Colliding particles must exceed the activation energy and meet with geometry that lets bonds form and break. Both conditions gate every reactive collision.
Correct Answer
AEnough energy and correct orientation
