Out of C and CO, which is a better reducing agent at the lower temperature range in the blast furnace to extract iron from the oxide ore?

What use of drugs is used in sleeping pills?

A reaction is second order in A and first order in B.

(i) Write the differential rate equation.

(ii) How is the rate affected on increasing the concentration of A three times?

(iii) How is the rate affected when the concentrations of both A and B are doubled?

For a reaction:

What is the role of cryolite in the extraction of aluminium?

What is the role of limestone in the extraction of iron from its oxides?

For the first order thermal decomposition reaction, the following data were obtained:

Time / sec               Totalpressure / atm

0                              0.30

300                          0.50

Calculate the rate constant

(Given: log 2 = 0.301, log3 = 0.4771, log 4 = 0.6021)

Due to hectic and busy schedule, Mr Angad made his life full of tensions and anxiety. He started taking sleeping pills to overcome the depression without consulting the doctor. Mr Deepak, a close friend of Mr. Angad advised him to stop taking sleeping pills and suggested to change his life lifestyle by doing yoga, meditation and some physical exercise. Mr. Angad followed his friend’s advice and after few days he started feeling better.

After reading the above passage, answer the following

(i) What are the values (at least two) displayed by Mr. Deepak?

(ii) Why is it not advisable to take sleeping pills without consulting doctor?

(iii) What are tranquilisers? Give two examples.

What is the role of CO in the extraction of Iron?

Write two factors that affect the rate of reaction.

For a reaction A + B ⟶ P, the rate is given by

Rate = k [A] [B]²

How is the rate of reaction affected if the concentration of B is doubled?

For a reaction A + B ⟶ P, the rate is given by

Rate = k [A] [B]²

What is the overall order of reaction if A is present in large excess?

For a reaction : 

(i) Write the order and molecularity of this reaction.

(ii) Write the unit of k.
