Cobalt(II) carbonate reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to produce carbon dioxide gas.

The rate of reaction between cobalt(II) carbonate and dilute hydrochloric acid at 25degC was investigated.

The investigation was carried out using different forms of solid cobalt(II) carbonate, while keeping the total mass of cobalt(II) carbonate and all other conditions constant.

The results are shown in Table 1.

Table 1

Form of cobalt(II) carbonate	Volume of carbon dioxide gas collected in 5 minutes in $cm3\text{cm}^3$
Large chips	18
Medium granules	42
Fine powder	85

State, using the information in Table 1, the effect of the surface area of the cobalt(II) carbonate on the rate of this reaction.
