Select one (or more) of the following:

I. The reactants must be in a super-critical state of matter.

II. The reactants must come together with a correct mutual alignment.

III. The combined kinetic energy of the reactants must be equal to or greater than the energy of activation for the reaction.

IV. At least one bond in one of the reactants must rupture before the collision of reactants

Select one:

A. III

B. I

C. II and III

D. IV

E. II

Explanation / Answer

For reaction to Occur reactants must come together with a correct mutual alignment and also their energy should be greater than Activation energy,

So following must be satisfied for reaction to occur:

II. The reactants must come together with a correct mutual alignment.

III. The combined kinetic energy of the reactants must be equal to or greater than the energy of activation for the reaction.

Answer: C. II and III
