Solution

The correct option is A True
The statement is true.
Rate of reaction depends upon surface area of reactants. By increasing the surface area of reactant, rate of reaction increases due to greater contact between individual particles and also due to the fact that the surface molecules reacts more quickly. The surface area increases the quantity of the substance that is available to react, and will thus increase the rate of the reaction.
