Half-life is independent of the concentration of a reactant. After 10 minutes, the volume of N2 gas is 10 L and after complete reaction, it is 50 L. Hence, the rate constant is:
1. log 5 min-1
2. log 1.25 min-1
3. log 2 min-1
4. log 4 min-1
The activation energies of the forward and backward reactions in the case of a chemical reaction are 30.5 and 45.4 KJ/mol respectively. The reaction is
1. Exothermic
2. Endothermic
3. Neither exothermic nor endothermic
4. Independent of temperature
The first order reaction \(\text{PCl}_5 (g) \rightarrow \text{PCl}_3 (g) + \text{Cl}_2 (g)\) has a half-life (\(t_{0.5}\)) of 20 minutes. What is the time required for the concentration of \(\text{PCl}_5\) to decrease to 25% of its initial concentration?
| 1. | 22 min | 2. | 40 min |
| 3. | 90 min | 4. | 50 min |
In the reaction A + B → C, if the concentration of A reduces from 4M to 2M in 1 hour, followed by a reduction from 2M to 1M in 0.5 hours, the order of the reaction is:
1. One
2. Zero
3. Two
4. Three
A gaseous reaction A2(g) → B(g) + (g) shows increase in pressure from 100 mm to 120 mm in 5 minutes. The rate of disappearance of A2 will be :
| 1. | 4 mm min-1 | 2. | 8 mm min-1 |
| 3. | 16 mm min-1 | 4. | 2 mm min-1 |
During the formation of ammonia by Haber's process N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, the rate of appearance of NH3 was measured as 2.5 x 10-4 mol L-1 s-1. The rate of disappearance of H2 will be:
1. 2.5 x 10-4 mol L-1 s-1
2. 1.25 x 10-4 mol L-1 s-1
3. 3.75 x 10-4 mol L-1 s-1
4. 15.00 x 10-4 mol L-1 s-1
For a chemical reaction, A products, the rate of reaction doubles when the concentration of A is increased by 4 times. The order of the reaction is
1. 4
2. 0
3. 1/2
4. 1
The correct expression for the 3/4th life of a first-order reaction is:
\(1 . \frac{k}{2 . 303} log \frac{4}{3}\)
\(2 . \frac{2 . 303}{k} log \frac{3}{4}\)
\(3 . \frac{2 . 303}{k} log\) \(4\)
\(4 . \frac{2 . 303}{k}\) \(log\) \(3\)
From the plot of log k vs 1/T, following parameter can be calculated:
1. Activation energy.
2. Rate constant of reaction .
3. Order of reaction.
4. Activation energy as well as the frequency factor.
Find the minimum possible value of activation energy, Eₐ, for an endothermic reaction having enthalpy change ΔH.
