For a reaction of the type products, it is observed that doubling the concentration of alone makes the rate times as great (here ), while doubling the concentration of alone makes the rate times as great (here , since the rate is unaffected). If the concentrations of both and are doubled simultaneously, the overall factor by which the rate increases is given by

Answer: (B)

Solution

Since rate for some constants (here , found from doubling alone quadrupling the rate while doubling alone leaves it unchanged), the fold-increase in rate is multiplicative and separable in the two concentrations: doubling
