The speed of this reaction is measured by the time required to complete
the reaction (by the constancy of conc. of the formed gas in the syringe)

The reaction with iron filings                  The reaction with a piece of iron
rate is faster, more exposed surface area      rate is slower, less exposed surface area
high number of reactant molecules
So this reaction ends in a short time              low number of reactant molecules
                                               So this reaction ends in a long time

2. The reactants concentration

When the reactant’s concentration (no. of molecules) increases, the probability of
collision bet. molecules increase, so the speed of reaction increases.
