Question 10
Which situation would react faster and why?





a
Example A would be faster because of a high surface area.
b
Example B would be faster because of a high surface area.
c
Example A would be faster because of a low surface area.
d
Example B would be faster because of a low surface area.

Answer 1

To determine which example would react faster, we need to consider the role of surface area in chemical reactions. Reactions typically occur at the surface of reactant particles, so higher surface area usually means a faster reaction because more particles are exposed and available for interaction.

Given the options in your question, if **Example A** has a high surface area, it would react faster, and the correct choice would be:

**a. Example A would be faster because of a high surface area.**

On the other hand, if **Example B** has a high surface area, then the correct choice would be:

**b. Example B would be faster because of a high surface area.**

So, the correct answer depends on which example (A or B) has the high surface area. If you have specific details about either example, that would help clarify the answer.
