tori is studying a chemical reaction and its reaction rate after observing the initial rate she adds thermal energy to the reaction. which of the answer choices correctly describes how the addition of thermal energy will affect the reaction rate ?

a.) increase in energy will cause the reactance particles to move faster which will increase their temperature and lead to a faster reaction rate

b.) increase in energy will cause the reactants particles to move faster which will increase their temperature and lead to a slower reaction rate

c.) the increasing energy will cause the reactance particles to move faster which will decrease their temperature and lead to a faster reaction rate

d.) the increasing energy will cause the reactance particles to move slower which will decrease their temperature and lead to a slower reaction rate

e.) increase in energy will cause the reactants particles to move slower which will decrease their temperature and lead to a faster reaction rate
