In a second-order reaction, what is the relationship between the rate and the concentration of the reactants?

A. Rate is proportional to the square of the concentration
B. Rate is inversely proportional to the concentration
C. Rate is independent of concentration
D. Rate is proportional to the product of the concentrations
