What affect the rate at which solid and liquid reaction occurs?

Surface area

Explanation:

Surface area affect the rate at which solid and liquid reaction occur because when the surface area is increase, there will be increase in chemical reaction which is as a result of particles size of the solid. When .there is decrease in the particle size of the solid, the surface area will increase and this is as a result of increase in the energy that is required by the particle size.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
