◦ The rate of the reaction will decrease at higher concentrations of B and C.
◦ The time required for one half of A to react is directly proportional to the quantity of A.
◦ The rate of formation of C is twice the rate of reaction of A.
◦ The rate of formation of B is the same as the rate of reaction of A.
◦ The initial rate doubles with doubling of initial concentration of A.
