Collision Theory


	(Figure 19.1)
The colliding molecules must possess higher energy than the mean energy
Boltzman's energy distribution law:
The probability of a molecule possessing the threshold energy, E is proportional to exp

Conditions for chemical reactions to occur:
Suitable molecule must collide with each other The molecules must collide with proper orientation (Determined by steric factor) Colliding molecules must possess energy greater than the threshold energy(E).
