Half-lives of a first-order and a zero-order reaction are the same. Assume that the initial concentration of the reactant is the same for both reactions,then the ratio of the initial rates of the first-order reaction to that of the zero-order reaction is:

  • A
    $1 / 0.693$
  • B
    $2 \times 0.693$
  • C
    $0.693$
  • D
    $2 / 0.693$

At $100\,^\circ C,$ the gaseous reaction $A_{(g)} \rightarrow 2B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$ is found to be first order. Starting with pure $A,$ if at the end of $10\,\min$,the total pressure of the system is $160\,mm$ and after a long time,when dissociation of $A$ was complete,it was $300\,mm.$ The partial pressure of $A$ at the end of $10\,\min$ is .......... $mm$
