The activated complex is formed due to
Correct answer: C. Effective collision
- A. Pressure
- B. Temperature
- C. Effective collision
- D. Ineffective collision
Explanation
An activated complex is formed when reactant molecules collide with enough energy and are in the correct orientation, to overcome the activation energy. So, effective collision will form an activated complex.

About Reaction Kinetics
Reaction kinetics relates reaction rate to concentration, temperature, surface area and catalysts. Questions cover rate laws, reaction order, rate constants, activation energy and the activated complex, including how a catalyst lowers the activation energy without changing the overall energy change or equilibrium position.
