Expert Solution

Step 1: Writing the general information.

Rate law describes the relationship between the rate of reaction and the concentration of reactants. The order of the reactants is used as exponents in the expression of rate law.

Write the given reaction.

$A + B \to C + D$

Write the rate law expression for the given reaction.

$R a t e = k {[A]}^{x} {[B]}^{y}$ ...................(1)

In this expression, x and y are considered to be orders of A and B respectively. To calculate the rate constant (k), the order of the reactants A and B is to be calculated first.
