Consider the following statements: In general, the rate of a chemical reaction increases a bit at first because it takes a while for the reaction to get warmed up. After that, however, the rate of the reaction decreases because its rate is dependent on the concentrations of the reactants, and these are decreasing. Indicate everything that is correct in these statements, and indicate everything that is incorrect. Correct the incorrect statements and explain.

Kinetics I Consider the hypothetical reaction A(g) + 2B(g) h C(g). The four containers below represent this reaction being run with different initial amounts of A and B. Assume that the volume of each container is 1.0 L.
