The initial rate data for the decomposition of AB compound were shown at the table below.
| [AB]^o (mol/L) | Initial rate (mol/L.s) |
|---|---|
| 0.2 | 3.2 x 10^{-3} |
| 0.4 | 1.28 x 10^{-2} |
| 0.6 | 2.88 x 10^{-2} |
a. Rate = k
b. Rate = k [AB]
c. Rate = k [AB]^2
d. Rate = k [AB]^3
e. Rate = [AB]^4
