What would give you an exponent of two in rate law?____

Answer

What would give you an exponent of two in rate law?
When comparing Trials, only the concentration of the reactant is doubled while the reaction rate is quadrupled between these trials, which indicates that the rate of the reaction is proportional to the square of the concentration of that reactant. The order of reactant is therefore two, and [reactant] receives an exponent of 2 in the rate law.
