For the reaction between aluminum metal and copper chloride (CuCl2) that we performed together, what is the reason that breaking a single 5 g piece of aluminum into 25 smaller pieces of aluminum (still with a total mass of 5 g ) speeds up the reaction rate.
Select all of the correct statements about reaction rates from the choices below. 1. The lower the rate of a reaction the longer it takes to reach completion.2. The rate of a slow step has more effect on the overall reaction rate than the rate of a fast step.3. Reaction rates decrease with increasing temperature.4. As a reaction progresses its rate goes down.5. Solid catalysts increase reaction rates as their surface areas increase.6. The rate of a reaction is independent of temperature.7. Reaction rates can show little change as masses of solid reactants increase.
