Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
When we cut a substance then more surface area of the substance comes in contact with the solvent. As a result, more number of solute particles come in contact with the solvent.
This will lead to more number of collisions between the solute and solvent. Hence, there will be rapid formation of products.
Thus, we can conclude that cutting a substance make it dissolve faster as it increases the surface area.
