JEE Main 2022 · 27 Jul · Shift 1, Chemistry question 82

2NO+2H2→N2+2H2O\mathrm{2NO+2H_2\rightarrow N_2+2H_2O}

The above reaction has been studied at 800°C. The related data are given in the table below

Reaction serial number Initial Pressure of H2\mathrm{H_2} / kPa Initial Pressure of NO / kPa Initial rate (−dpdt)\left(\dfrac{-dp}{dt}\right) / (kPa/s)
1 65.6 40.0 0.135
2 65.6 20.1 0.033
3 38.6 65.6 0.214
4 19.2 65.6 0.106

The order of the reaction with respect to NO is ______.

Answer and worked solution

Official answer: 2

Runs 1 and 2 (same H2\mathrm{H_2}). Halving NO (40→20.140\to20.1) cuts the rate about fourfold (0.135→0.0330.135\to0.033).

Order 2 in NO.

Answer: 2
