(N/A) $(i)$ The differential rate equation is $\text{Rate} = k[A][B]^2$.
$(ii)$ If the concentration of $B$ is increased $3$ times,the new rate is $\text{Rate}' = k[A][3B]^2 = 9k[A][B]^2 = 9 \times \text{Rate}$. Thus,the rate increases $9$ times.
$(iii)$ If the concentrations of both $A$ and $B$ are doubled,the new rate is $\text{Rate}'' = k[2A][2B]^2 = k[2A][4B^2] = 8k[A][B]^2 = 8 \times \text{Rate}$. Thus,the rate increases $8$ times.

Consider the following reaction $A + B \rightarrow C$.
The time taken for $A$ to become $1/4$ of its initial concentration is twice the time taken to become $1/2$ of the same. Also,when the change of concentration of $B$ is plotted against time,the resulting graph gives a straight line with a negative slope and a positive intercept on the concentration axis. The overall order of the reaction is . . . . .

Which is True $(T)$ and False $(F)$ in the following statement?
The order of this reaction is $10$.

Calculate the order of the reaction with respect to $A$ and $B$ based on the following data:
$[A] \ (mol/L)$ $[B] \ (mol/L)$ Rate $(mol/L \cdot s)$
$0.05$ $0.05$ $1.2 \times 10^{-3}$
$0.10$ $0.05$ $2.4 \times 10^{-3}$
$0.05$ $0.10$ $1.2 \times 10^{-3}$

For a chemical reaction $A \to B$,it is found that the rate of reaction doubles when the concentration of $A$ is increased four times. The order of the reaction with respect to $A$ is:
