Solution

The correct option is A r1=r2=r3
Suppose R1,R2 and R3 are the rates of three reactions of first, second and third order respectively, and k is the rate constant all the three reactions.
R1=k[A]
R2=k[A]2
R3=k[A]3
[A] being the concentration of the reactiont A in mol per lit.
Now if,
[A]=1, R1=R2=R2
[A]<1, R1>R2>R3
[A]>1, R1<R2<R3
