For the reaction A + B → C, experiments were performed in the presence of a large amount of B to measure the initial reaction rate (Vf) as a function of the initial concentration of A ([A]0). The data from the experiments are plotted as shown below. The order of the reaction with respect to A is:

 
1. 1
2. 3
3. 2/3
