Collision Theory Simulator

What you'll learn

• How a particle's kinetic energy must exceed the Activation Energy for a reaction to occur.
• How the frequency of collisions dictates reaction rates (via Concentration, Pressure, and Surface Area).
• The statistical spread of particle energies and how temperature and catalysts influence success ratios.

How to use it

1. Select your tier (GCSE or A-Level) using the intuitive tier switch panel.
2. Adjust the reactive environment parameters, including Temperature, Concentration, and Catalyst presence.
3. Observe the real-time collision mechanics and track performance using live metrics mapping successful combinations.

Notes

This unique sandbox environment features robust 2D physics linking physical laws directly to core curriculum chemistry theories mapped securely to the AQA/OCR/Edexcel specifications.
