You Double The Concentration The Rate
Doesn’t Change. What Can You Conclude
From That

b) It Is First Order For A
c) It Is Second Order For A
d) A Doesn’t Have Impact So It Is Not Part

represents a plot of
average rate on
the vertical axis

natural logarithm of the concentration
of A on the vertical axis versus the time
on the horizontal axis for a first order
reaction
The following reaction is found to be

B) Rate = k[NO][H2]2
C) Rate = k[NO]2[H2]2
D) Rate = k[NO]2[H2]
E) Rate = k[N2][H2O]2/[NO]2[H2]

same.
b) Both k and the reaction rate increase.
c) Both k and the reaction rate decrease.

reactants is observed to double when
the concentration of one reactant is
doubled and the second reactant is
held constant. The rate is also observed

first reactant constant. What is the
overall order for this reaction?
