Which situation is not characteristic of the collision theory model of the reaction ?
(a)The electron density around A, B, and C must change
(b)The orientation of the two species must be correct
(c)As A approaches BC, a strong attraction between any filled shells of electrons will develop between the two species
(d)The kinetic energy of the molecules may be the only source of energy for attaining the activation energy. The collisions of A and BC that result in a reaction are a very small fraction of the total number of collisions
