22. For the reaction, $$4N{H_3} + 5{O_2} \to 4NO + 6{H_2}O,$$      if the rate of disappearance of $$N{H_3}$$  is $$3.6 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}\,{s^{ - 1}},$$     what is the rate of formation of $${H_2}O?$$

A $$5.4 \times {10^{ - 3}}mol\,{L^{ - 1}}\,{s^{ - 1}}$$
B $$3.6 \times {10^{ - 3}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}\,{s^{ - 1}}$$
C $$4 \times {10^{ - 4}}mol\,{L^{ - 1}}{s^{ - 1}}$$
D $$0.6 \times {10^{ - 4}}\,mol\,{L^{ - 1}}\,{s^{ - 1}}$$

23. For the non - stoichimetre reaction $$2A + B → C+D,$$    the following kinetic data were obtained in three separate experiments, all at $$298 K.$$
Initial Concentration $$\left( A \right)$$ Initial Concentration $$\left( B \right)$$ Initial rate of formation of $$C\left( {mol\,{L^{ - 1}}\,{s^{ - 1}}} \right)$$
$$0.1\,M$$ $$0.1\,M$$ $$1.2 \times {10^{ - 3}}$$
$$0.1\,M$$ $$0.2\,M$$ $$1.2 \times {10^{ - 3}}$$
$$0.2\,M$$ $$0.1\,M$$ $$2.4 \times {10^{ - 3}}$$

The rate law for the formation of $$C$$ is :

A $$\frac{{dc}}{{dt}} = k\left[ A \right]\left[ B \right]$$
B $$\frac{{dc}}{{dt}} = k{\left[ A \right]^2}\left[ B \right]$$
C $$\frac{{dc}}{{dt}} = k\left[ A \right]{\left[ B \right]^2}$$
D $$\frac{{dc}}{{dt}} = k\left[ A \right]$$
Answer :   $$\frac{{dc}}{{dt}} = k\left[ A \right]$$
