Answer:

A. Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy.

Explanation:

The correct statement is " Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy"

What is activation energy?

"Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy that must be provided to molecules /atoms of the compounds/ elements to result in a chemical reaction."

When temperature increases the kinetic energy of the molecules increases hence more reactant molecules reach the activation energy.

So it can be concluded that by Increasing the temperature increases how many reactant molecules reach activation energy.
