In the reaction, H_(2)S+H_(2)O_(2) to S+2H_(2)O:

(A) The rections 2NO+O_(2) to 2NO_(2) and 2CO+O_(2) to 2CO_(2) , proceed at the same rate because they are similar. (R ) Both the oxidations of NO and CO have the same activation energy.

For the reaction 2NO(g)+O_(2)(g)to2NO_(2(g)) volume is suddenly reduced to half its value by increasing the pressure on it. If the reaction is of first order with respect to O_(2) and second order with respect to NO, the rate of reaction will
