The rate law for the reaction H2(g) + 2NO(g) → N2O(g) + H2O(g) was experimentally determined to be rate = k [NO]2 [H2]. Which of the following statements is false? Doubling the concentrations of both reactants would double the reaction rate Tripling H2 concentration would triple the reaction rate The overall reaction order is 3 Decreasing NO concentration by half would decrease the reaction rate 4 times
