Sparklers enclose powdered iron. Explain why do sparklers burn more rapidly that a piece of iron wire? Select all that apply.

The larger surface area of the iron powder raises the rate of reaction.
Converting the iron to a powder makes it a catalyst
Converting the iron to a powder makes it an ionic compound which reacts more rapidly
Smaller particles contain a lower energy of activation than larger particles
Larger particles react more quickly than small particles.
