How does an increase in reactant concentration affect the rate of reaction?

A
It leads to more frequent collisions, which increase reaction rate.
B
It leads to less frequent collisions, which increase reaction rate.
C
It leads to more frequent collisions, which decrease reaction rate.
D
It leads to less frequent collisions, which decrease reaction rate.
