D)I,II,and III
E)I

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Increasing the reaction temperature increases both the collision frequency (II) and the fraction of collisions with sufficient energy (III) to overcome the activation energy barrier, thus facilitating the reaction. The energy of activation itself does not change with temperature.
