For an elementary dimerization reaction of the type 2 R R ₂ , the value of the steric factor was found to be 2.5 . This indicates that
Options
- Athe experimentally obtained rate is 2.5 times faster than the theoretical rate.
- Bratio of the number of collisions calculated from collision theory and that actually take place is 1: 2.5 .
- Cthe activation energy of the reaction is the same for both the experimental and calculated values.
- Dthe molecules of reactant R may be of some complex structure.
