Use the information to answer the following question. Several groups of Chemistry students are tasked with producing aluminum chloride using solid aluminum as a reactant. The teacher provides the students with two forms of aluminum, powder and solid chunks. Which type of aluminum should the students plan to use in order to increase the reaction rate? Solid chunks because the greater surface area will allow more collisions between reactants to occur. Powder because the lower surface area will allow more collisions between reactants to occur. Solid chunks because the lower surface area will allow more collisions between reactants to occur. Powder because the greater surface area will allow more collisions between reactants to occur.
