The unit of rate constant for a second-order reaction is usually expressed as:

  • A
    $mol \, L^{-1} \, s^{-1}$
  • B
    $mol^{-1} \, L \, s^{-1}$
  • C
    $mol \, L \, s^{-1}$
  • D
    $mol^{-2} \, L^2 \, s^{-1}$

For the reaction $A + B \rightarrow C$, we have the following data:
Initial concentration of $A$ $(M)$Initial concentration of $B$ $(M)$Initial Rate $(M \cdot s^{-1})$
$1$$10$$100$
$1$$1$$1$
$10$$1$$10$

The order of the reaction with respect to $A$ and $B$ are:

Write about elementary and complex reactions.

For the reaction $A + B \to C$,it is found that doubling the concentration of $A$ increases the rate by $4$ times,and doubling the concentration of $B$ doubles the reaction rate. What is the overall order of the reaction?

The rate of the reaction becomes twice when the concentration of reactant becomes $8$ times,then the order of the reaction is:
