Answer #1

Essentially:

r1

r2
= k [A]1a [B]1b

k [A]2a [B]2b

then

with respect to A

0.0015/0.0005 = (0.60)^a / (0.2)^a * (1)

3 = (0.6/0.2)^a

3 = 3^a

a = 1

for B

0.0005/0.0020= (0.1)^b / (0.2)^b * (1)

0.25 = (0.1/0.2)^b

1/4 = (1/2 ) ^b

b = 2

for C

0.0015/0.0005 = (0.60)^a / (0.2)^a * (1)

Experiment does not include C in initial rates so

0.016/0.008 = (0.2/0.4)^c * (0.4/0.2)^1

0.016/0.008 * (0.2/0.4) =  (0.2/0.4)^c

1 = 0.5^c

no correlation so choose 0

orders = 1, 2, 0
