For the reaction: 4 Fe2+ (aq) + O2 (g) + 4 H3O+ (aq) → 4 Fe3+ (aq) + 6 H2O (l) it is known that when the Fe2+ concentration is doubled and the concentrations of the other reactants are kept constant, the reaction rate increases 8 times. When both Fe2+ and O2 concentrations are doubled then the reaction rate increases 16 times. When the concentrations of all three reactants are doubled increases the reaction rate 32 times. Write the rate equation for the reaction.
