    Rate = k * [C₄H₆]²

    Explanation:

    It is possible to write the reaction as:

    2C₄H₆ → C₈H₁₂

    The differential rate law for a simple second order reaction of the type 2A → B is:

    Rate = k * [A]²

    With the above information in mind, the rate law for the reaction of butadiene would be:

    Rate = k * [C₄H₆]²
