When they were viewing the slides given below, their instructor asked them to guess which of the following could be the effective collision and justify their answer. |
Answer» Solution : The collisions REPRESENTED by FIGURE (a) are effective collisions. Thecollisions with threshold energy result in a reaction. APART from this, the reactants which collide should have a proper orientation. In figure (b), the nitrogen atom of NO is not near enough to make a bond with any of the near enough to make a bond with any of the oxygen atoms of ozone. In figure (a), the NO molecule collides with `O_(3)` where the direction in which both the reactants collide is PERFECT enough to result in a CHEMICAL reaction. |
