Question

an increase in temperature affects the reaction rate by increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient potential energy to react. increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient kinetic energy to react. decreasing the velocities of particles that collide in the reaction. decreasing the energy that particles need to overcome the energy activation barrier.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

La velocidad de una reacción química depende de la energía cinética de las moléculas. Cuando se aumenta la temperatura, las moléculas adquieren más energía cinética. Esto significa que un mayor número de moléculas tendrá suficiente energía cinética para superar la barrera de activación y reaccionar.

Answer:

Increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient kinetic energy to react.
