Smaller particle size allows for a _________ surface area to be exposed for the reaction.

• larger

• smaller

• rectangular

• spherical

Increasing the ____ causes the particles (atoms

or molecules) of the reactants to move more quickly so that

they collide with each other more frequently and with more

energy.

• Catalyst

• Surface Area

• Temperature

• Concentration
