More surface area.

Explanation: breaking the salt into smaller pieces (or powder) exposes more solid to the water so dissolution and diffusion happen faster. The other choices would not increase the rate: low temperature slows dissolution, little/no agitation slows it (stirring speeds it up), and color has no direct effect.
