The increase in rate constant of a chemical reaction with increasing temperature is due to the fact$(s)$ that:

  • A
    the number of collisions among the reactant molecules increases with increasing temperature
  • B
    the activation energy of the reaction decreases with increasing temperature
  • C
    the concentration of the reactant molecules increases with increasing temperature
  • D
    the number of reactant molecules acquiring the activation energy increases with increasing temperature
