Activation Energy:This is the minimum amount of energy required for a chemical reaction to occur. It's like needing a certain amount of strength to make an effective shot in pool.
Reaction Rate:This refers to how quickly or slowly reactants turn into products in a chemical reaction. In our pool game analogy, it's similar to how fast or slow players can sink all their balls into pockets.
Orientation Factor: This is about how molecules must be oriented during collisions for reactions to happen. Like in pool, where hitting balls from different angles will lead them towards different directions.
