A student wants to determine the rate law for the reaction between compound A and compound B. The student measures the initial rate of the reaction under different conditions and records the following data:

| Experiment | [A] (M) | [B] (M) | Initial Rate (M/s) |
|------------|---------|---------|-------------------|
| 1          | 0.1     | 0.1     | 4.22x10^-4         |
| 2          | 0.2     | 0.1     | 8.44x10^-4         |
| 3          | 0.1     | 0.2     | 1.69x10^-3         |

What is the rate law expression for this reaction in terms of the rate constant, k?
