Which of the following is an example of a second-order reaction?

For a gaseous reaction $2A + B \rightarrow C + D$,the rate of reaction is given by $Rate = K[A][B]$. If the volume of the container is reduced to $1/4$ of its original volume,what will be the ratio of the new rate to the original rate?

During the kinetic study of the reaction $2A + B \rightarrow C + D$,the following results were obtained:
Experiment $[A] \ (M), [B] \ (M)$ and Initial rate of formation of $D$
$i. \ [A]=0.1, [B]=0.1$ $6.0 \times 10^{-3} \ M \ s^{-1}$
$ii. \ [A]=0.3, [B]=0.2$ $7.2 \times 10^{-2} \ M \ s^{-1}$
$iii. \ [A]=0.3, [B]=0.4$ $2.88 \times 10^{-1} \ M \ s^{-1}$
$iv. \ [A]=0.4, [B]=0.1$ $2.40 \times 10^{-2} \ M \ s^{-1}$

Based on the above data,the overall order of the reaction is:

Consider the following reaction,
$2H_{2(g)} + 2NO_{(g)} \rightarrow N_{2(g)} + 2H_2O_{(g)}$
which follows the mechanism given below:
$2NO_{(g)} \underset{k_{-1}}{\stackrel{k_1}{\rightleftharpoons}} N_2O_{2(g)}$ (fast equilibrium)
$N_2O_{2(g)} + H_{2(g)} \stackrel{k_2}{\rightarrow} N_2O_{(g)} + H_2O_{(g)}$ (slow reaction)
$N_2O_{(g)} + H_{2(g)} \stackrel{k_3}{\rightarrow} N_{2(g)} + H_2O_{(g)}$ (fast reaction)
The order of the reaction is

For the reaction $2A + 2B \rightarrow 2C + D$,if $r = k[A]^2[B]^0$,then the rate of reaction is:
