Consider the following single step reaction in gas phase at constant temperature.
$2 \ A_{(g)} + B_{(g)} \rightarrow C_{(g)}$
The initial rate of the reaction is recorded as $r_1$ when the reaction starts with $1.5 \ atm$ pressure of $A$ and $0.7 \ atm$ pressure of $B$. After some time,the rate $r_2$ is recorded when the pressure of $C$ becomes $0.5 \ atm$. The ratio $r_1 : r_2$ is $\qquad$ $\times 10^{-1}$.
