Answer: D) decreasing the temperature lowers the average kinetic energy of the reactants.

Explanation:

Rate of a reaction decreases on decreasing the temperature because the energy of the reactant decreases and thus less molecules can cross the energy barrier.

Average kinetic energy is defined as the average of the kinetic energies of all the particles present in a system. It is determined by the equation:

K=\frac{3RT}{2}

From above, it is visible that kinetic energy is directly related to the temperature of the system. So, if temperature is less, average kinetic energy of the system is less and thus rate decreases.

vova2212 [387]
<span>In normal conditions gas particles remain very distant from each other. They rarely collide and are stable. When temperature increases the gas particles begin to move faster and collide more, reducing the distance. When pressure increases the gas particles also pick up kinetic speed and are also closer to each other.</span>
