Rate of a chemical reaction is dependent on all of the above factors. 

Physical state: Solid < Liquid < gas

Smaller is the size if particle, more will be the rate of reaction because effective surface area increases

For both endo- and exo-thermic reactions, rate of reaction increased on increasing the temperature. On increasing the temperature by 10°C generally rate of reaction becomes 2 to 3 times.
