Temperature vs. speed of Chemical Reaction

I am doing a report on temperature and I need to find out how temperature affects a chemical reaction if you can help that will be so great thank you Hannah

Higher temperatures almost always increase the rate of chemical reactions because temperature is a measure of how vigorously the molecules are bouncing around, and the more they do, the less time it is going to take for the different materials to come into intimate contact and be able to react.

If you have a sibling in high school or beyond, this will be covered in any chemistry book you find. If not, get one from the library. Good luck.
