Given information
A reaction in which A, B, and C react to form products is first
order in A, second order in B, and zero order in C.
From part a:
By what factor does the reaction rate change if [A] is
doubled (and the other reactant concentrations are held
constant)
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Rate law expression for this reaction is:
where k is the rate constant
and [A],[B],[C] are the concentration of the reactant A,B,C respectively.
If [A] is doubled and
the other reactant concentrations are held
constant,
That means [A] becomes [2A],rate law expression will be;
