Temperature: Rate of reaction increases with the increase of temperature as it increases the number of effective collisions. It is observed that for every 10oC rise in temperature -dx/dt or rates become nearly double.

As the temperature increases, the rate of reaction increases. It does not depend upon the endothermic or exothermic nature of the reaction.

So, Option 2 is correct.
