Definition von collision theory im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch

Any theory that relates collisions among particles to reaction rate; reaction rate depends on such factors as concentration, surface area, temperature, stirring, and the presence of either a catalyst or an inhibitor

(Kimya) Collision theory is a theory, proposed by Max Trautz and William Lewis in 1916 that qualitatively explains how chemical reactions occur and why reaction rates differ for different reactions. It assumes that for a reaction to occur the reactant particles must collide, but only a certain fraction of the total collisions, the effective collisions, cause the transformation of reactant molecules into products. This is due to the fact that only a fraction of the molecules have sufficient energy and the right orientation at the moment of impact to break the existing bonds and form new bonds. The minimal amount of energy needed so that the molecule is transformed is called activation energy. Collision theory is closely related to chemical kinetics
