Q. Which of the following statement is in accordance with collision theory? Rate is directly proportional to collision frequency Rate depend upon orientation of atoms Temperature determines the rate

A) Only III
B) Only I and II
C) Only II and III
D) All of these
Explanation

(d)
According to collision theory,
1. The reaction rate depends on collision frequency and effective collisions. For a molecule to have effective collision it should fulfill two conditions; proper orientation and sufficient energy.
2. The collision rate $i.e$., the number of collisions taking place in unit volume is also termed as collision frequency ($Z$) and is given by
$z = \frac{\pi n^{2}\sigma^{2}u_{av}}{\sqrt{2}}$
3. Greater the temperature, greater will be the collision rate.
