How does crushing a cube of solute increase the rate of dissolving? a) by increasing the amount of solvent. b) by decreasing the amount of solvent. c) by increasing the surface area of the solute. eliminate d) by decreasing the surface area of the solute

C) By increasing the surface area of the solute.

Explanation: The rate of reaction means how much time is taken for the reaction to happen. The rate of the reaction depends on the surface area of solute.

When we crush a cube of solute, the surface area increases as more surface of the cube can interact with the solvent and thus the rate of dissolution will increase.

Increasing or decreasing the amount of solvent has no effect on the rate of reaction.

the earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygen. solids can turn into gasses through a process called sublimation. sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.

hope this : d

gas and liquid
