If the surface area of the reactants increases,then the order of the reaction:

For the reaction $A_2 + B_2 \to 2AB$,the experimental data is given below. Determine the order of the reaction.
Experiment No. $[A_2] \text{ (M)}$ $[B_2] \text{ (M)}$ Rate $(M \cdot s^{-1})$
$1$ $0.1$ $0.1$ $1.6 \times 10^{-4}$
$2$ $0.1$ $0.2$ $3.2 \times 10^{-4}$
$3$ $0.2$ $0.1$ $3.2 \times 10^{-4}$

The following data are obtained for a reaction,$X + Y \rightarrow$ Products.
$Expt.$ $[X]_0 / mol \ L^{-1}$ $[Y]_0 / mol \ L^{-1}$ $Rate / mol \ L^{-1} s^{-1}$
$1$ $0.25$ $0.25$ $1.0 \times 10^{-6}$
$2$ $0.50$ $0.25$ $4.0 \times 10^{-6}$
$3$ $0.25$ $0.50$ $8.0 \times 10^{-6}$

The overall order of the reaction is:

If the concentration of reactant $B$ is doubled,the rate of the reaction between reactants $A$ and $B$ becomes $1/4$ of the initial rate. The order of the reaction with respect to reactant $B$ is ......

For the reaction $A + B \to \text{Product}$,the rate of reaction becomes four times when the concentration of $A$ is doubled. If the rate of reaction does not change when the concentration of $B$ is doubled,the rate law for the reaction will be.....
