Collision Theory (2 Viewers)

[drakeshiesty]

Is it that:

frequency of collisions are affected by concentration
rate of successful collisions are affected by temperature

and both of these drive frequency of successful collisions or does temperature also affect frequency of collisions on its own (I saw this online when I searched)? or is this just waffle lmao pls help maybe im making it convoluted

Also, for HSC, is it important to be well-versed on gibbs free energy or just surface level stuff (spontaneity)?

"Why did the two atoms break up?"
Because they didn’t have enough activation energy to make their relationship work.

temperature: increases % of collsions that are successful
and frequency of collisions (but pretty minor effect)

concentrations: increases frequency of collisions

gibbs free energy isn't really needed in much detail just know its relation to spontaneity
