Question
Assertion: Rate constants determined from Arrhenius equation are fairly accurate for simple as well as complex molecules.
Reason: Reactant molecules undergo chemical change irrespective of their orientation during collision.
Options
Both assertion and reason are correct and the reason is correct explanation of assertion.
Both assertion and reason are correct but reason does not explain assertion.

Solution
Assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.
Explanation:
To Arrhenius equation `(k =Ae^((-Ea)/(RT)))`; it is found almost accurate for single as well as complex reaction.
However, orientation is essential for the reactant molecules participating in the reaction.
