A reaction was found to be second order with respect to the concentration of carbon monoxide. If the concentration of carbon monoxide is doubled, with everything else kept the same, the rate of reaction will:

A $remain unchanged$
B $triple$
C $increase by a factor of 4$
D $double$

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

The rate law is R = k [CO]^{2} .If the concentration is doubled ([CO]^{'} = 2 [CO]): R^{'} = k (2 [CO])^{2} = 4 k [CO]^{2} R^{'} = 4 R The rate increases by a factor of 4 .
