Rate of reaction — practice question

The graph presents the outcomes of adding excess calcium carbonate to hydrochloric acid at $50^{\circ}\text{C}$ and at $30^{\circ}\text{C}$. The only factor altered is temperature. Which row shows how the reacting particles at $30^{\circ}\text{C}$ compare with those at $50^{\circ}\text{C}$?
