Answer:

D) Increasing the temperature increases the energy of the molecules.

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing the temperature increases the energy of the molecules.

As temperature increases the energy of the molecules increases and the energy of the collision making it more likely for a reaction to occur.

Answer:D

Explanation:according to Kinetic molecular theory the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

It means that when we increase the temprature the motion of molecules increase,as a result the rate of reaction is also increased.

Which means that the effective collision is also increased.
