That there is a bigger area of a solid exposed, so there is a greater chance of collisions causing a reaction.

yes heat loss is affected by diameter, circumference and surface area. Heat loss depends on the surface area : volume ratio.......the larger this is the more heat is lost if a cylinder having the same volume but a different surface area...(therefre radius and circumference is different)........the cylinder having the larger surface area will loose heat fastest
Kinda of a combination of both. The surface of a 3-D object is called surface area.
surface area is basically the total area of each surface of the 3d object. Sa = 2-D A = 3-D
surface area of glass plate
Volume does not, surface area does.
