Compounds A and B react according to the following chemical equation : `A(g) + 2B(g) rarr2C(g)` Concentration of either A or B were changed keeping the concentrations of one of the reactant constants and rates were measured as a function of initial concentration, Following results were obtained. Choose the correct option for the rate equations for this reaction.A. Rate = `k[A]^(2)[B]`B. Rate = `k[A][B]^(2)`C. Rate = `k[A][B]`D. Rate = `k[A]^(2)[B]^(0)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Let Rate law, `r=k[A]^(x)[B]^(y)" "....(i)`
On putting values, we get
`0.10 = K [0.30]^(x)[0.30]^(y) " "....(ii)`
`0.40 = K[0.30]^(x)[0.60]^(y)" "....(iii)`
`0.20=K[0.60]^(x)[0.30]^(y)" "....(iv)`
From Eqs. (ii) and (iii), we get
`(0.1)/(0.4)=[(0.30)/(0.30)]^(x)[(0.30)/(0.60)]^(y)`
`(1)/(4)=[(1)/(2)]^(y)implies y = 2`
From Eqs. (iii) and (iv), we get
`(0.40)/(0.20)=((0.30)/(0.60))^(x)((0.60)/(0.30))^(y)`
`2=((1)/(2))^(x)(2)^(y)`
On putting the values of y, we get
`2=((1)/(2))^(x)(2)^(2)`
`implies " "x=1`
On putting the values of x and y in Eq. (i), we get
`r=k[A]^(1)[B]^(2)=k[A][B]^(2)`
