For a first order reaction $A_{(g)} \rightarrow 2B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$ at constant volume and $300 \ K$,the total pressure at the beginning $(t=0)$ and at time $t$ are $P_0$ and $P_t$,respectively. Initially,only $A$ is present with concentration $[A]_0$,and $t_{1/3}$ is the time required for the partial pressure of $A$ to reach $1/3^{rd}$ of its initial value. The correct option$(s)$ is (are) (Assume that all these gases behave as ideal gases)
