The rate law for a reaction between the substances A and B is given by Rate = k[A]ⁿ [B]^m On doubling the concentration of A and halving the concentration of B, the ratio of the new rate to the earlier rate of the reaction will be as

For the reaction system:

2NO(g) + O₂(g) $$\to$$ 2NO₂(g) volume is suddenly reduce to half its value by increasing the pressure on it. If the reaction is of first order with respect to O₂ and second order with respect to NO, the rate of reaction will

Graphite is a soft solid lubricant extremely difficult to melt. The reason for this anomalous behaviour is that graphite :

Concentrated hydrochloric acid when kept in open air sometimes produces a cloud of white fumes. The explanation for it is that :
