Question

The nature of the reactant is one of the factors which affects the rate of the reaction.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

The nature of the reactant plays an important role in the chemical reaction. The rate of reaction is faster in case of a more reactive metal than a less reactive metal. For example, sodium, being highly reactive, reacts violently with cold water while calcium does not react with cold water at all.
