Particles in reactions P and Q collide with an energy of 54 kJ/mol. The activation energies are shown in the table.
| Reaction | Activation energy (kJ/mol\text{kJ/mol}kJ/mol) |
|---|---|
| P | 48 |
| Q | 61 |
Explain what happens when the particles collide in reaction P and when they collide in reaction Q.
