Give the relation between half-life $(t_{1/2})$ and initial concentration of reactant $([R]_0)$ for an $(n-1)^{th}$ order reaction.

  • A
    $t_{1/2} \propto [R]_0$
  • B
    $t_{1/2} \propto [R]_0^{2-n}$
  • C
    $t_{1/2} \propto [R]_0^{n+1}$
  • D
    $t_{1/2} \propto [R]_0^{n-2}$

If a reaction has the experimental rate expression $\text{rate} = K [A]^2[B]$,what happens to the reaction rate if the concentration of $A$ is doubled and the concentration of $B$ is halved?

The rate of a certain reaction is given by, $Rate = k[H^{+}]^n$. The rate increases $100$ times when the $pH$ changes from $3$ to $1$. The order $(n)$ of the reaction is:

For the reaction $2NO_{(g)} + O_{2_{(g)}} \rightarrow 2NO_{2_{(g)}}$,the volume of the reaction vessel is suddenly reduced to half of its original volume. If the reaction is first order with respect to $O_2$ and second order with respect to $NO$,the rate of the reaction will:
