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

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.
