Why do broken down pieces of rock have more surface area then larger pieces?
Broken down pieces of rock have more surface area than larger pieces because the process of breaking creates additional surfaces that were previously internal. Each fragment exposes new surfaces that were not visible in the larger, intact rock. As the size of the rock decreases, the ratio of surface area to volume increases, resulting in a greater total surface area for smaller pieces. This increased surface area can enhance weathering and chemical reactions, making smaller fragments more reactive.
How do the surface area and volume of rock affect the rate at which the rock weathers?
The surface area and volume of rock significantly influence the rate of weathering, as a larger surface area relative to volume allows for more exposure to weathering agents such as water, air, and biological activity. When rocks are broken into smaller pieces, their total surface area increases, which accelerates chemical and physical weathering processes. Conversely, larger, solid masses of rock have less surface area exposed, slowing the weathering rate. Additionally, variations in rock composition and structure can also impact how easily rocks weather.
What is the relationship between the percent volume not reached by the stain and the surface area-to-volume ratio?
The relationship between the percent volume (not reached by the stain) and the surface area-to-volume ratio would be that the bigger the agar cube size (surface area to volume ratio), the bigger the percent volume. This is true because resources need to travel a farther distance through the cell ("cover more ground", so to speak) in order to be evenly distributed through the cell.
Introduction to surface area and volume?
This is part of a statement, not a question!
Difference between parachor and rheochor?
parachor is depend on the surface tention of the liquid and its molar volume rheocor is depend upoun the viscosity of a liquid . both are additive and constiitutive property.
Why do small pieces of food cook faster than large pieces of the same food?
This is to do with surface area. With the same amount of food cut into smaller pieces, the water is in contact with a greater amount of the food. This means two things:- 1) more of the food is being cooked at one time 2) because all the pieces are smaller it will take less time to cook the pieces properly because they are smaller.
You can speed up a reaction if you break the solid reactant into smaller pieces what factor does this describe?
When you break up a solid into smaller pieces it dissolves faster when you have big pieces of the solid you have to wait for the substance that is dissolving it ti be picked up by the object that is being dissolved but when the pieces are smaller it dissolves faster because their smaller and the substance dissolving the object get picked up much faster
Does the size of sugar affect the speed at which it dissolves in water?
greater surface area to volume ratio greater the rate of dissolution it will dissolve faster if broken into smaller pieces hence smaller = faster
Will breaking a stone into pieces increase its volume?
No. It has the same mass, and the same density.
How does surface to volume ratio to the size of a cell?
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
how does surface to volume relate to the size of a cell?
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
Is the surface area of an object be smaller than the volume?
It can be.
How does surface-to-volume ratio relate to the size of the cell?
As the cell gets bigger, the surface to volume ratio gets smaller.
Which cell has the greater surface area compared to its volume the large cell or one of the smaller cells?
A smaller cell has a higher surface area to volume ratio. A reason for this is volume is cubic (3D) and surface area is 2D so when surface area increases a little bit, the volume increases exponentially. And when the surface area shrinks a little bit, the volume decreases exponentially.
As a cell becomes smaller its surface-area-to-volume ratio?
The surface area to volume ratio decreases - assuming the shape remains similar.
Why do things that have a bigger surface area volume ratio dry faster than things with a smaller surface area volume ratio?
Because evaporation happens at the surface.
How would you describe the relationship between surface area, volume, and body size in animals?
The relationship between surface area, volume, and body size in animals is that as an animal's body size increases, its volume increases faster than its surface area. This means that larger animals have a smaller surface area relative to their volume compared to smaller animals. This has implications for things like heat regulation, as larger animals may have a harder time dissipating heat due to their smaller surface area relative to their volume.
