Rate of a reaction can be expressed by Arrhenius equation as K= Ae^-E/RT In this equation, E represents

• the energy above which all the colliding molecules will react

• the energy below which colliding molecules will not react

• the total energy of the reacting molecules at a temperature, T

• the total energy of the reacting molecules at a temperature, T

The following mechanism has been proposed for the reaction of NO with Br2 to form NOBr
NO(g) Br₂ (g) ⇌ NOBr₂ (g)
NOBr₂ (g) NO(g)→ 2NOBr(g)
If the second step is the rate determining step, the order of the reaction with respect to NO(g) is

• 1

• 0

• 3

• 3

Consider an endothermic reaction, X → Y with the activation energies E_b and E_f for the backward and forward reactions, respectively. In general

• E_b < E_f

• E_b > E_fEb > Ef

• E_b = E_f

• E_b = E_f

t₁/4 can be taken as the time taken for the concentration of a reactant to drop to 3/4 of its initial value. If the rate constant for a first order reaction is K, the t₁/4 can be written as

• 0.10 / K

• 0.29 / K

• 0.69 / K

• 0.69 / K

An amount of solid NH₄HS is placed in a flask already containing ammonia gas at a certain temperature and 0.50 atm. Pressure. Ammonium hydrogen sulphide decomposes to yield NH₃ and H₂S gases in the flask. When the decomposition reaction reaches equilibrium, the total pressure in the flask rises to 0.84 atm. The equilibrium constant for NH₄HS decomposition at this temperature is
