Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we crush a solute then there will be increase in number of solute particles. This means that there is increase in surface area of solute particles.

Hence, more is the surface area of solute particles more will be the collisions between solute and solvent particles. Therefore, more will be rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that we crush solids before putting them into a solvent to increase the surface area of the solute.

Which statement is true about a reaction represented by a chemical equation that shows energy as a reactant?
vovikov84 [41]
A. It absorbs energy.
reactants are located on the left side of the equation, meaning energy among with other reactants were needed to get the reaction going, so it absorbed energy, which is also the endothermic process. The opposite of that would be having energy on the right side with the products which means that the reaction would've released energy which is the exothermic process. Hope this helps!
