The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.
Which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?
(a) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen less frequently.
(b) at low temperatures, low-energy collisions happen more frequently.
(c) at higher temperatures, less-energy collisions happen less frequently.
(d) at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently
Explanation:
When we increase the temperature of a chemical reaction then molecules of the reactant species tend to gain kinetic energy. As a result, they come into motion which leads to more number of collisions within the molecules.
Therefore, chemical reaction will take less amount of time in order to reach its end point. This means that there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently, best explains why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction.
Answer:
Arts and science are similar in that they are expressions of what it is to be human in this world.
Explanation:
Both are driven by curiosity, discovery, the aspiration for knowledge of the world or oneself, and perhaps, as the conceptual artist Goshka Macuga said on her recent visit to Cern, a desire for world domination.

What element has the same number of orbits as Hydrogen? Why? Do they have similar properties, why?
Answer:
Helium
Explanation:
Helium has the same number of orbitals as hydrogen because they belong to the same period on the periodic table.
Periods are the horizontal arrangement of elements. Elements in the same period are known to have the same number of electronic shell or orbitals.
In period 1 where we have just Hydrogen and Helium, the number of orbitals is 1.
For properties of a specie, elements in the same group which are the vertical arrangement of elements have the same properties. Since both Hydrogen and helium are in different groups, their properties differ.
