2. F and G react together. When the concentration of F is tripled and the concentration of G remains constant, there is a nine-fold increase in the rate of reaction. What is the order of reaction with respect to F?
Second order
3. P and Q react to form E. In one experiment, the concentration of P is tripled while Q is kept constant. This causes the rate to triple. In a second experiment the concentration of Q is doubled while the concentration of P is kept constant. The rate is found to have quadrupled. Write a rate equation for this reaction. What is the overall order of reaction?
