Multiple choice chemistry chemical kinetics introduction to chemical kinetics understanding chemical kinetics rate of chemical reaction

Rate of formation of ${ SO } _{ 3 }$ according to the reaction $2{ SO } _{ 2 }+O _{ 2 }\rightarrow 2{ SO } _{ 3 }\quad is\quad 1.6\times { 10 }^{ -3 }kg\quad min^{ -1 }$. Hence rate at which $SO _{ 2 }$ reacts is:

  1. $1.6\times { 10 }^{ -3 }kg\quad { min }^{ -1 }$
  2. $8.0\times { 10 }^{ -4 }kg\quad { min }^{ -1 }$
  3. $3.2\times { 10 }^{ -3 }kg\quad { min }^{ -1 }$
  4. $1.28\times { 10 }^{ -3 }kg\quad { min }^{ -1 }$

D Correct answer
Explanation

$2 SO _2 + O _2 \rightleftharpoons  2 SO _3$


$\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{d[SO _3]}{dt} = 1.6 \times 10^{-3} kg/min = \dfrac{1.6 \times 10^{-3}}{80} mol/min$                             $[\because M _{SO _3}= 80 \times 10^{-3} Kg/mol]$


$\dfrac{-1}{2}\dfrac{d[SO _2]}{dt} = \dfrac{+1}{2}\dfrac{d[SO _3]}{dt}$

$= -\dfrac{1.6 \times 10^{-3}}{80 \times 10} $ mol/min

$= -\dfrac{1}{50} \times 64 \times 10^{-3} = -1.28 \times 10^{-3} $ kg/min

Multiple choice chemistry chemical kinetics introduction to chemical kinetics understanding chemical kinetics rate of chemical reaction

For a reaction
$2A+B\rightarrow C+D$, the active mass of $B$ is kept constant but that of $A$ is tripled. The rate of reaction will -

  1. Decrease by $3$ times
  2. Increased by $9$ times
  3. Increase by $3$ times
  4. Unpredictable

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

According to the given reaction, $ Rate = k[A]^{2}[B]^{1} $

When A becomes 3A i.e. triples, the rate will become: $ Rate^{'} = k[3A]^{2}[B]^{1} = 9k[A]^{2}[B] $
Thus, rate of reaction is increased by 9 times. 

Multiple choice chemistry chemical kinetics introduction to chemical kinetics understanding chemical kinetics rate of chemical reaction

The study of chemical kinetics becomes highly complicate if there occurs:

  1. reversible reaction

  2. side reaction

  3. surface reaction

  4. none of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B,C Correct answer
Explanation

The study of chemical kinetics becomes highly complicate if there occurs side reactions or surface reactions.These reactions bring changes in the value of rate constant and not help to proceeds the reaction in the right manner.

Multiple choice chemistry chemical kinetics introduction to chemical kinetics understanding chemical kinetics rate of chemical reaction

The container of $2$ litrer contains $4$ mole of $N _{2}O _{5}$. On heating to $100^{\circ}C, N _{2}O _{5}$ undergoes complete dissociation to $NO _{2}$ and $O _{2}$. Select the correct answers if rate constant for decomposition of $N _{2}O _{5}$ is $6.2\times 10^{-4}sec^{-1}$.
1. The mole ratio before and after dissociation is $4 : 2$
2. Half life of $N _{2}O _{5}$ is $1117\ sec$ and it is independent of concentration.
3. Time required to complete $40$% of reaction is $824\ sec$.
4. If volume of container is doubled, the initial rate of decomposition becomes half of the initial rate.

  1. $1, 3, 4$
  2. $1, 2, 3, 4$
  3. $3, 4$
  4. $2, 3, 4$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Because reaction is first order

$\vartheta =k[A]$
$A=A _{0}e^{-kt}$

for which

$t _{40}=824$sec
if$v _{f}=2V _{i}\Rightarrow C _{f}=\frac{C _{i}}{2}\Rightarrow \vartheta _{f}=\frac{\vartheta _{i}}{2}$

Ozone hole means :

  1. thinning of the ozone layer

  2. a large sized hole in ozone layer

  3. small hole scattered in the ozone layer

  4. thickening of ozone in ozone layer

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

"Ozone hole" means thinning of the ozone layer.


The ozone hole is not technically a “hole” where no ozone is present but is actually a region of exceptionally depleted ozone layer.

Hence the option A is correct.

Choose the correct answer form the alternatives given.
Scuba divers are at high risk due to high concentration of dissolved gases while breathing air at high pressure under water. The tanks used by Scuba divers are filled with :-

  1. Air diluted with helium

  2. 02

  3. N

  4. A mixture of nitrogen and helium

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Scuba divers use a mixture of gases to avoid nitrogen narcosis and oxygen toxicity at high pressures. Helium is often used to dilute the mixture because it is inert and less soluble in blood than nitrogen.

The part of atmosphere which contains constant gases with known composition called :

  1. Homosphere

  2. Thermosphere

  3. Heterosphere

  4. None of these

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The part of the atmosphere which contains constant gases with a known composition called homo-sphere.

The homosphere is the lower of the two and the location in which turbulent mixing dominates the molecular diffusion of gases. In this region, which occurs below 100 km (about 60 miles) or so, the composition of the atmosphere tends to be independent of height.
