Answer:

Changing the surface area affects the reaction rate.

Explanation:

More particles are exposed to attack when the surface of a solid reactor increases. This increases the likelihood of collisions between reacting particles and causes a higher collision rate at any given time.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
