BRANLIEST NO EXPLANATION NEEDED. When a cube of manganese oxide was added to a solution of hydrogen peroxide, water and oxygen were produced. Manganese oxide was not used up in the reaction. Which of the following is likely to increase the rate of the reaction? (5 points)
Reducing the mass of the cube
Using a smaller amount of solution
Smashing the cube into pieces
Chilling the hydrogen peroxide solution

Smashing the cube into pieces

Explanation:

The reason for this is that if we were to smash the cube we would have a larger surface area which means more manganese oxide would be dissolving per second which means we would have a faster reaction rate where if we were to chill the peroxide it would dissolve slower which in turn slows the reaction. For example a spoonful of granulated sugar will react with water faster than a sugar cube.
