Answer:

The rate law may be determined only by experiment.

Explanation:

For a reaction, A + B ---> C, the rate law can only be determined from experimental data. Chemists determine the rate of reaction by carefully observing the changes in the concentration of species as the reaction progresses.

Hence, the rate law is not determined by inspection of the chemical reaction equation, it must be obtained from the experimental data, hence the answer given.
