| Particle size is a subdivision provides for more contact between reactants and thus, more frequent collisions. | |

| So when solid reactants are present in very small pieces, reaction rates can increase considerably? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
 | |  |
| Yes, because the tinier pieces have a greaten surface area so they provide much greater contact among the reactants and effect more collisions. | |
