Rate of reaction — practice question

Magnesium is allowed to react with dilute sulfuric acid. $\text{Mg(s)} + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4\text{(aq)} \rightarrow \text{MgSO}_4\text{(aq)} + \text{H}_2\text{(g)}$ The two experiments are both done at $25\,^{\circ}\text{C}$. experiment 1: $24.0\,\text{g}$ of powdered magnesium is reacted with $100\,\text{cm}^3$ of $1.0\,\text{mol dm}^{-3}$ sulfuric acid. experiment 2: $24.0\,\text{g}$ of powdered magnesium is reacted with $50\,\text{cm}^3$ of $2.0\,\text{mol dm}^{-3}$ sulfuric acid. For each experiment, the hydrogen volume is recorded at equal time intervals. These results are then shown on a graph. Which graph is correct?
