A chemist studies a chemical reaction whose rate law depends only on the concentration of a reactant "A." although she doesn't know if the reaction is first order or second order in A. She presents the following data for you. 1) The plot of In [A] versus time In[A] time 2) The initial concentration of A is 1.5 M. 3) 40.0% of A reacts in 22 seconds.
