Nanoparticles of a metal are used in a face cream. The same metal in bulk is known to be safe to use on the skin.

Why can the safety data for the metal in bulk not be used for the nanoparticles?

[1]
A

The nanoparticles contain a different element from the bulk metal

B

The nanoparticles have a much lower density than the bulk metal

C

The nanoparticles may have different properties from the bulk metal

D

The nanoparticles are used in a much smaller mass than the bulk metal
