Apologies for the incorrect response. You are right, the correct answer is:
b) The rate would quadruple.
In a second-order reaction with respect to reactant A, doubling the concentration of A will result in the rate of the reaction increasing by a factor of four.
b) The rate would quadruple.
In a second-order reaction with respect to reactant A, doubling the concentration of A will result in the rate of the reaction increasing by a factor of four.
