Consider a general first order reaction $A_{(g)} \rightarrow B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$. If the initial pressure is $200 \ mm$ and after $20 \ minutes$ it is $250 \ mm$,then the half-life period of the reaction (in minutes) is. $(\log 2 = 0.30, \log 3 = 0.48, \log 4 = 0.60)$

Which of the following is a first-order reaction?

The following data were obtained during the first-order decomposition of $2 A_{(g)} \rightarrow B_{(g)} + C_{(s)}$ at a constant volume and at a particular temperature. The rate constant in $min^{-1}$ is:
$S$.no.TimeTotal pressure in Pascal
$1.$At the end of $10 \ min$$300$
$2.$After completion$200$

If the half-life of a first-order reaction is $6.93$ minutes, then the time required for the completion of $99\%$ of the reaction will be . . . . . . minutes. (Given: $\log 2 = 0.3010$)
