what is the effect of surface area on reaction rate?
larger surface area increases reaction rate. surface area has no effect on reaction rate.
larger surface area decreases reaction rate. larger surface area stops reaction rate entirely.

Explanation:

In chemical reactions, when the surface area of a reactant is larger, more particles are exposed. This allows for more frequent collisions between reactant particles. According to the collision theory, more collisions (under appropriate conditions like correct orientation and sufficient energy) lead to a faster reaction rate.

Answer:

Larger surface area increases reaction rate.
