What is the order of a reaction which has a rate expression $\text{rate} = K[A]^{3/2}[B]^{-1}$?

In a chemical reaction $A$ is converted into $B$. The rates of reaction,starting with initial concentrations of $A$ as $2 \times 10^{-3} \ M$ and $1 \times 10^{-3} \ M$,are equal to $2.40 \times 10^{-4} \ M s^{-1}$ and $0.60 \times 10^{-4} \ M s^{-1}$ respectively. The order of reaction with respect to reactant $A$ will be

If the half-life of a reaction is halved when the initial concentration of the reactant is doubled,what is the order of the reaction?

For a particular reaction,the variation of the rate constant with temperature is given by $\ln k_t = \ln k_0 + \left( \frac{\ln (2.5)}{10} \right) \times t$ $(t \geqslant 0 \, ^{\circ}C)$. Here,$k_0$ is the rate constant at $0 \, ^{\circ}C$ and $k_t$ is the rate constant at $t \, ^{\circ}C$. The temperature coefficient of the reaction,assuming that the rate constant increases by the same factor for every $10 \, ^{\circ}C$ rise in temperature,is:
