In this video, we look at collision theory and how this can be used to explain rates of reaction. First we explore what is meant by collision theory and how particles must collide in order for a chemical reaction to take place. We then look at how we can increase the rate of reaction by increasing the concentration of a reactant in solution or the pressure of a gas.
