Solution

The correct option is A $3$ times
For first-order reaction; rate law will be:

Rate of reaction $(R_{1}) = k [N O_{2}]$ ...(i)

If the volume of the reaction vessel is reduced to $\frac{1}{3},$ concentration increase by three times

Rate of reaction $(R_{2}) = k \times 3 [N O_{2}]$ ...(ii)

On dividing both equation:

$\frac{Rate of reaction (R_{1})}{Rate of reaction (R_{2})} = \frac{k [N O_{2}]}{k \times 3 [N O_{2}]}$

$R_{2} = 3 \times R_{1}$

Hence, the correct answer is option $C$ .
