Solution

The correct option is C Both (a) and (b)
For irreversible reaction, rate of reaction only depends on the concentration of reactants only. Generally they do not depend on product concentration.
Thus, the rate of reactioon is proportional to concentratiom of reactants.
The representation of rate of reaction in terms of the concentration of the reactants is called rate law.
R=K(Concentration)order

Order of a reaction:
For a given reaction:
aX+bY+cZProducts
If,
Rate[X]p[Y]q[Z]r
Overall order of the reaction is :
(p+q+r)
Rate=K[X]p[Y]q[Z]r

For elementary reaction (Reaction involves only single step):
The sum of stoichiometric coefficients is equal to the order of the reaction.
Thus, for
3A+12B+2C32X+2Y

Order of reaction is:
3+12+2=112

Rate law of reaction is
R=K[A]3[B]12[C]2

Hence, the correct answer is option (c).
