NEET Chemistry Rate of Reaction MCQ Question
What happens to the distribution curve of molecular energies when the temperature of a reaction is raised?
The maximum of the curve moves to a higher energy value.
The area under the curve increases significantly.
The curve becomes narrower and more peaked.
The curve shifts to lower energy values.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
As the temperature is raised, the maximum of the distribution curve moves to a higher energy value, indicating a greater proportion of molecules with higher energies.
