    Ans : Letthe concentration of the reactant be [A] = a

    Rate of reaction, R = k [A]2

    = ka2
    () If the concentration of the reactant is doubled, i.e. [A] = 2a, then the rate of the reaction would be



    = 4ka2

    = 4 R

    Therefore, the rate of the reaction would increase by 4 times.
    () If the concentration of the reactant is reduced to half, i.e. , then the rate of the reaction would be





    Therefore, the rate of the reaction would be reduced to
    () If the concentration of the reactant is reduced to half, i.e. , then the rate of the reaction would be





    Therefore, the rate of the reaction would be reduced to
    () If the concentration of the reactant is reduced to half, i.e. , then the rate of the reaction would be





    Therefore, the rate of the reaction would be reduced to
