Problem- A reaction is second order in X and zero order in Y. Doubling the initial concentration of X and having the initial concentration of Y at constant temperature causes the initial rate to:
(1) increase by a factor of 4.
(2) decrease by a factor of 2.
(3) remain unchanged.
(4) increase by a factor of 2.
(5) be undeterminable without the balanced equation.
I need help for above question. Show each steps for the above problem.
