Answer:
a. The second run will be faster.
d. The second run has twice the surface area.
Explanation:
The rate of a reaction is proportional to the surface area of a catalyst. Given the volume (V) of a sphere, we can find its surface area (A) using the following expression.

The area of the 10.0 cm³-sphere is:

The area of each 1.25 cm³-sphere is:

The total area of the 8 1.25cm³-spheres is 8 × 5.61 cm² = 44.9 cm²
The ratio of 8 1.25cm³-sphere to 10.0 cm³-sphere is 44.9 cm²/22.4 cm² = 2.00
Since the surface area is doubled, the second run will be faster.
