Question

As the temperature of a reaction is decreased, the rate of the reaction decreases because thegroup of answer choicesreactant molecules collide less frequentlyreactant molecules collide more frequently and with greater energy per collisionactivation energy is higherreactant molecules collide more frequently with less energy per collision

Answer 1

Reactant molecules collide less frequently.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decrease in temperature decreases the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules leading to decreased chances of collisions of the reactants for the formation of the products.
