\[\ce{Ni_{(s)} + 2Ag^+_{( aq)} <=> Ni^{2+}_{( aq)} + 2Ag_{(s)}}\]

Given: `"E"_("Ni"^(2+)//"Ni")^0` = −0.25 V, `"E"_("Ag"^+//"Ag")^0` = +0.80 V, 1F = 96500 C mol⁻¹.

Among the following, which has the highest value of pK_b?

What happens to the rate constant k and activation energy E_a as the temperature of a chemical reaction is increased? Justify.

The complex [Co(NH₃)₅(NO₂)]Cl₂ is red in colour. Give IUPAC the name of its linkage isomer.

Why is the boiling point of o-dichlorobenzene higher than p-dichlorobenzene, but the melting point of para-isomer is higher than ortho-isomer?

Assertion (A): The half-life of a reaction is the time in which the concentration of the reactant is reduced to one-half of its initial concentration.

Reason (R): In first-order kinetics, when the concentration of reactant is doubled, its half-life is doubled.
