Why does a higher temperature lead to a higher rate of reaction?
Heat is a form of energy - the more heat a particle has, the more energy it has, and so the faster it moves. This increases the number of collision is a set period of time, whilst also increasing the number of particles that have energy equal to or greater than the activation energy. Therefore the rate of reaction increases
