Under the same reaction conditions, initial concentration of 1.386" mol dm"^(-3) of a substance becomes half in 40 seconds and 20 seconds through first order and zero order kinetics respectively. Ratio (k_(1)//k_(0)) of the rate constants for first order (k_(1)) and zero order (k_(0)) of the reactions is

Answer»

`0.5" mol"^(-1)" dm"^(3)`
`1.0" mol dm"^(-3)`
`1.5" mol dm"^(-3)`
`2.0" mol"^(-1)" dm"^(3)`

Solution :For 1ST order reaction,
`t_(1//2) = (0*693)/(K) or k_(1) = (0.0693)/(t_(1//2)) = (0*693)/(40S)`
For zero order reaction,
`t_(1//2) = ([A]_(0))/(2K) or k_(0) = ([A]_(0))/(2t_(1//2)) = (1*386 mol dm^(-3))/(2xx 20s)`
`therefore (k_(1))/(k_(0)) = (0*693)/(40s) xx (2xx 20s)/(1*386 mol dm^(-3)) = 0*5 mol^(-1) dm^(3)`
21807.

Why are cimetidine and ranitidine better antacids than sodium hydrogen carbonate or magnesium or aluminium hydroxide ?

Answer»

Solution :Sodium hydrogen carbonate or magnesium or aluminium hydroxide neutralize the excess HCl and raise the pH to an appropriate level in stomach THEREFORE, these and control only the moms and not the cause. In CONTRAST, cimetidine and ranitidine are BETTER antacids because they prevent the INTERACTION of histamine with the receptor present in the stomach wall and thus release lesser AMOUNT of HCl
