Description
At the end of this activity, students should be able to: – describe a chemical reaction at the microscopic level as a collision of reactant molecules – discuss the factors that govern the effectiveness of collisions – explain the course of a reaction in terms of activation energy and an activated complex – use energy diagrams to show the course of a reaction – define a reaction mechanism – give examples of chemical reactions that do not require collisions between molecules to occur.
