Subject: General Chemistry
The rate of a chemical reaction is the speed at which it occurs. Different reactions happen at different rates. According to collision theory, collisions between reactant molecules having sufficient energy lead to product formation. An increase in the speed of collisions increases the collision frequency, and as a result, the rate of the reaction increases.
