The collision theory explains reaction rates in terms of

  • A size of the product
  • B frequency of collision of the reactants
  • C size of reactant
  • D frequency of collision of the products

The correct answer is B. frequency of collision of the reactants

Collision theory is the theory used to predict the rates of chemical reactions, particularly for gases. The collision theory is based on the assumption that for a reaction to occur it is necessary for the reacting species (atoms or molecules) to come together or collide with one another.
