If the concentration of a reactant is reduced to half, the rate of reaction becomes \(\frac{1}{4}\). What will be the order of reaction?
- A \(0\)
- B 1
- C 2
- D 4
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 2
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \text{Rate}_2 / \text{Rate}_1 = ([\text{A}]_2 / [\text{A}]_1)^n \) \( 1/4 = (1/2)^n \) \( n = 2 \)

- Arrange the given compounds in order of decreasing oxidation state of nitrogen:
A. \(N_2\)
B. \(NO\)
C. \(HNO_3\)
D. \(NH_4Cl\)
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:CUET 2023 Medium - p-block elements are placed in groups 13 to 18 of the periodic table. Group 15 is nitrogen family.
Nitrogen makes various compounds like \(NH _3, HNO _3, N_2 O , NO _2\) etc. Phosphorus exists in the form of white and red phosphorus. White phosphorus glows in dark. \(PH _3\) gas is used as smoke screen. Group 16 is called oxygen family. Dry air contains \(21% O_2\) gas by volume. Combined sulphur exists as sulphates such as gypsum, epsome salt, baryte etc. The allotropic forms of sulphur are Rhombic and monoclinic sulphur. \(S_2\) is paramagnetic like \(O_2\) and it stable at high temperature. Group 17 is Halogen family. \(F _2\) is highly reactive, \(Cl _2\) is greenish yellow gas. Both \(SO _2\) and \(Cl _2\) are used for bleaching. Group 18 is Noble gas family but some noble gases also form compounds.
Complete hydrolysis of \(XeF _6\) gives HF and \(XeO _3\) as main products. The permanent bleaching effect is caused by :CUET 2023 Hard - Which of the following is correct about the nature of ligand?CUET 2025 Hard

Ethers with the general formula \(C _n H _{2 n+2} O\) and functional group C-O-C may be divided as symmetrical and unsymmetrical.
Lower symmetrical ether may be obtained by the dehydration of alcohols at low temperatures in the presence of protic acids,
such as \(H _2 SO _4\) and \(H _3 PO _4\) whereas at high temperature intramolecular dehydration takes place.
Formation of ether from primary alcohols is also accompanied by the formation of small amount of alkenes.
Due to the steric hinderance, secondary and tertiary alcohols undergo elimination reaction rather than substitution reaction yielding alkene as major product. Ethers can also be obtained by heating alkyl halides with sodium or potassium alkoxides.
Substituted Ethers (secondary & tertiary) can also be prepared using this method.
If primary halides are replaced with secondary and tertiary halides, alkenes are the major products.
