Q. The decomposition of $N_{2}O_{5}$occur as $2N_{2}O_{5} \rightarrow 4NO_{2} + O_{2},$ and follows Ist order kinetics, hance
A) The reaction is unimolecular
B) The reaction is bimolecular
C) $t_{1/2} \propto a^{0}$
D) None of the above
Explanation
(c)
For an $n$th order reaction
$t_{1/2} \propto \frac{1}{a^{n - 1}}$
For 1^{st} order reaction ,$t_{1/2} \propto \frac{1}{a^{1 - 1}} \propto a^{0}$
