In the collision theory, the rate is given as the rate = p \: \: Z_{AB}\: \: e^{-Ea/RT}

Where Z_{AB} represents the collision frequency of reactants A and B.

p is steric factor 

R is the universal gas constant. 

E_a is the Activation energy required for the reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
