In the reaction, 
if the concentration of both the reactants is doubled, then the rate of the reaction will
if the concentration of both the reactants is doubled, then the rate of the reaction will(a)remain unchanged
(b)quadruple
(c)reduce to one fourth
(d)double
Answer
Answer: D ✓ checked by 4AB · confidence high
Explanation
A tertiary bromide hydrolyses by S_N1: rate = k[RBr], independent of [OH⁻]. Doubling both concentrations only doubles the rate (d).
