An increase in temperature affects the reaction rate by decreasing the velocities of particles that collide in the reaction. increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient kinetic energy to react. increasing the number of molecules that have sufficient potential energy to react. decreasing the energy that particles need to overcome the energy activation barrier.
