Plots of potential energy for a system versus the reaction coordinate show an energy barrier that must be overcome for the reaction to occur. The arrangement of atoms at the highest point of this barrier is the activated complex, or transition state, of the reaction. At a given temperature, the higher the Ea, the slower the reaction.

Collision theory ...Chemical reactions require collisions between reactant species. These reactant collisions must be of proper orientation and sufficient energy in order to result in product formation. Collision theory provides a simple but effective explanation for the effect of many experimental parameters on reaction rates. The Arrhenius equation describes the relation between a reaction’s rate constant and its activation energy, temperature, and dependence on collision orientation.

This complex lasts approximately 10−13s and can revert to reactants or evolve into products, though its exact structure is largely undetermined.

Elementary reactions can be unimolecular, bimolecular, or occasionally termolecular, though the latter usually involves rapid bimolecular steps forming and stabilizing an activated complex. A valid mechanism must match the overall stoichiometry, be consistent with observed kinetics, and account for any side products.
