An increase in the concentration of the reactants of a reaction leads to change in :

1. heat of reaction
2. threshold energy
3. collision frequency
4. activation energy

The rate constant for a first order reaction is 4.606 10-3 s-1. The time required to reduce 2.0 g of the reactant to 0.2 g is :

1. 200 s
2. 500 s
3. 1000 s
4. 100 s

If the rate constant for a first order reaction is k, the time (t) required for the completion of 99 % of the reaction is given by :

1. t = 4.606k
2. t = 2.303k
3. t = 0.693k
4. t = 6.909k

For the chemical reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) 2NH3(g) the correct option is :

1. - d[N2]dt = 2 d[NH3]dt
2. - d[N2]dt = 12 d[NH3]dt
3. 3 d[H2]dt = 2 d[NH3]dt
4. - 13 d[H2]dt = - 12 d[NH3]dt

The correct difference between first and second order reactions is that

1. the rate of a first-order reaction does not depend on reactant concentrations; the rate of a second-order reaction does depend on reactant concentrations
2. the half-life of a first-order reaction does not depend on [A]0; the half-life of a second order reaction does depend on [A]0
3. a first-order reaction can be catalysed; a second-order reaction cannot be catalysed
4. the rate of a first-order reaction does depend on reactant concentrations; the rate of a second-order reaction does not depend on reactant concentrations

When initial concentration of the reactant is doubled, the half-life period of a zero order reaction

1. is halved
2. is doubled
3. is tripled
4. remains unchanged.
