The initial rate of the reaction A + B → C + D is determined for different initial conditions, with the results listed in the table.
Experiment [A] (M) [B] (M) Vi (Ms-1)
1 0.185 0.133 3.35 * 10-4
2 0.185 0.266 1.35 * 10-3
3 0.370 0.133 6.75 * 10-4
4 0.370 0.266 2.70 * 10-3
(a) What is the order of reaction for reactants A and B?
(b) What is the general reaction order?
(c) What is the value of the rate constant? Include the units.
