In general, as temperature rises, so does reaction rate. This is because the rate of reaction is dependent on the collision of the reacting molecules or atoms. As temperature rises, molecules or atoms respond with increased motion, increasing the collision rate, thus increasing the reaction rate.
Effect of temperature on enzyme activity. The temperture of a system is to some extent a measure of the kinetic energy of the molecules in the system. Thus the lower the kinetic energy, the lower the temperature of the system and , likewise, the higher the kinetic energy, the greater the temperature of the system. Increases in the temperature of a system results from increases in the kinetic energy of the system. This has several effects on the rates of reactions. When molecules collide, the kinetic energy of the molecules can be converted into chemical potential energy of the molecules.
