Solution

When $d x / d t = k [A]^{m} [B]^{n}$ , the reaction is said to be of $m^{t h}$ order in A and of $n^{t h}$ order in B. The overall order is $m + n$ .
Similarly when $d x / d t = k [A] [B]^{2}$ , the reaction is said to be of $1^{s t}$ order in A and of $2^{n d}$ order in B. The overall order is $1 + 2 = 3$ .
