Why do we crush solids before putting them into a solvent? to increase the temperature of the solution to decrease the temperature of the solution to increase the surface area of the solute to decrease the surface area of the solute

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.
