Detailed Solution

For the reaction,

d[BrO3-]dt=K [BrO3-] [Br] [H+]2

The rate law equation indicates that it depends on the concentration of BrO3-, Br- and twice the concentration of H+. This indicates that the rate affects by the concentration of acid and change in pH of the solution. It also signifies that if concentration [H+] becomes twice, then the rate becomes four times.
