Essential Chemistry for IGCSE - Rate Of Reaction (Section 4 - No. 10)

In the context of collision theory, what condition must be met for a collision between reactant molecules to be successful (result in a reaction)?
The molecules must collide with a high mass.
The molecules must collide with sufficient energy.
The molecules must collide at a high temperature.
The molecules must collide at a high concentration.

Explanation

For a reaction to occur, molecules must collide with enough energy to overcome the activation energy barrier.
