Answer;

It is because nano particles have a large surface area compared to the powder.

Explanation;

-The rate of a chemical reaction can be raised by increasing the surface area of a solid reactant. This is done by cutting the substance into small pieces, or by grinding it into a powder.

-If the surface area of a reactant is increased, it means more particles are exposed to the other reactant.

Law of Conservation of Mass in terms of atoms
VARVARA [1.3K]

No atoms are lost or made during the chemical reaction so the total mass of the products is equal to the total mass of the reactants. In an atom, protons and neutrons contribute to the mass and since the number of them doesn’t change, the mass doesn’t either.

Write a 4-line paragraph to explain what is melting.
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Melting  is the process of being changed from a solid to a liquid state especially by the application of heat. This occurs when the energy of the solid increases, which increases the substance's temperature to the melting point.  Typically, the solids energy increases by the application of heat or pressure. At the melting point, the ordering of molecules in the solid breaks down to a less ordered state, and the solid "melts" to become a liquid.

hope this helps! :)
