Describe how surface area affects the rate of a reaction? 20pts.. needs to be in your own words, due to this being a part 2 test xd

When you change the surface area of the reactants, we do increase the rate of the reaction. The surface of the reactant will have a higher chance to collide with a solid reactant. For example, atoms and molecules have to collide with each other.

I really hope I could help, sorry if I'm wrong! :)

chemical energy is stored in the chemical bonds of atoms and molecules. it can only be seen when it is released in a chemical reaction. when chemical energy is released, the substance from which the energy came is often changed into an entirely different substance.

this chemical reaction releases energy in the form of light and heat. chemical energy is the potential energy stored in the arrangement of atoms within molecules. breaking chemical bonds requires energy, while forming new chemical bonds releases energy.

the atp molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. in this form,energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.

the answer is a for sure mark brainliest i had got this right on usatestprep
