    Consider the following first order gas phase reaction at constant temperature
    A(g)→2 B( g)+C(g)A(g) \rightarrow 2\text{ }B(\text{ }g) + C(g)
    If the total pressure of the gases is found to be 200 torr after 23sec23sec. and 300 torr upon the complete decomposition of A after a very long time, then the rate constant of the given reaction is ____ ×10−2 s−1\times10^{- 2}{\text{ }s}^{- 1} (nearest integer) [Given: log⁡102=0.301\log_{10}2 = 0.301 ]
