Question

For a reaction $A + B \rightarrow P$, when $[A]$ is doubled (keeping $[B]$ constant), the rate strictly doubles. When both $[A]$ and $[B]$ are doubled simultaneously, the overall rate increases by a factor of exactly 8. What is the total overall order of this reaction?

Prashant Kotian · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. Rate = . Since doubling doubles the rate, . Doubling both gives . The overall order is .
