When orange solution containing Cr_(2)O_(7)^(2-) ion is treated with an alkali, a yellow solution is formed and when H^(+) ions are added to yellow solution, an orange solution is obtained. Explain, why does this happen ?

The decomposition of dimethyl ether leads to the formation of CH_4, H_2 and CO and the reaction rate is given by rate = k [CH_(3) OCH_(3) ]^(3//2) . The rate of reaction is followed by increase in pressure in a closed vessel, so the rate can also be expressed in terms of the partial pressure of dimethyl ether, i.e. rate =k (P_(CH_3 OCH_3) )^(3//2) . If the pressure is measured in bar and time in minutes, then what are the units of rate and rate constant?
