PRINCIPLE
LY
Some properties that are dependent on the surface area are heating, cooling,
taste, feel, capacitance, resistance. Some properties which are dependent on
volume are weight, mass, inertia.
Surface area and volume both quantities are important in determining how the
PO
material will interact with the world around it. Not only quantity but the ratio of
surface area to volume is also a factor in how that material will interact and
amount of reactivity.
The amount of surface area determines the degree of reactivity of a material
chemical, biological and physical reaction such as rusting, burning, decay surface

tension and binding strength. All depend upon surface area. More surface area
means more surface molecules are exposed to the interfacing environment.

fold and sub folds that increase are of inner lining of digestive track surface which
absorbs more nutrients and chemicals and increase the rate of digestion. This is a
natural advantages of increase surface area to volume ratio.

Basic Concepts of surface area to volume ratio
(1) SA/V ratio is not a constant value
(2) Higher SA/V ratio more physical, chemical and biological reactivity.
(3) SA/V ratio changes as the shape of objects changes for same volume flatter and
elongated shape has more SA/V ratio.
C,
(4) SA/V ratio changes linearly as size of the object changes to particular shape.
Smaller the size higher the SA/V ratio.
(5) SA/V ratio changes as texture of surface changes. Rougher the surface higher the
SA/V ratio.
