You are given a choice to sweeten a glass of iced tea with a cube of sugar or a packet of sugar crystals. If your goal is to sweeten the tea as quickly as possible you would choose — A. the cube because it has less exposed surface area and would dissolve faster
B. the packet of crystals because crystals dissolve faster than a single cube
C. the cube because the exothermic reaction would heat the tea and speed up the process
D. either the cube or packet because both would perform identically
