For a second-order reaction, which graph will yield a straight line?

A. Concentration vs. time
B. 1/Concentration vs. time
C. ln(Concentration) vs. time
D. Rate vs. time

Answer: 1/Concentration vs. time

Additional Information: For second-order reactions, plotting 1/[A] against time gives a straight line.
