The following graph shows two different reaction pathways for the same overall reaction at the same temperature. Which pathway is slower and why?

• Red, because the activation energy is larger
• Blue, because the activation energy is lower
• both reaction progress at the same rate

Why does a higher concentration increase the rate of reaction?

• it increases the amount of reactants

• it lowers the activation energy

• it increases the energy of particle collisions

• it increases the frequency of particle collisions

Why does a higher temperature increase the rate of a reaction?

• it increases both the frequency and energy of particle collisions

• it only increases the frequency of particle collisions

• it only increases the energy of particle collisions

• it reduces the activation energy of the reaction
