    For a given chemical reaction
    γ1 A+γ2 B→γ3C+γ4D\gamma_{1}\text{ }A +\gamma_{2}\text{ }B \rightarrow\gamma_{3}C +\gamma_{4}D
    Concentration of CC changes from 10mmol10mmol dm−3dm^{- 3} to 20mmoldm −320mmoldm\ ^{- 3} in 10 seconds. Rate of appearance of DD is 1.5 times the rate of disappearance of BB which is twice the rate of disappearance AA. The rate of appearance of DD has been experimentally determined to be 9mmol9mmol dm−3 s−1dm^{- 3}{\text{ }s}^{- 1}. Therefore the rate of reaction is moldm −3 s−1moldm\ ^{- 3}{\text{ }s}^{- 1}.

    Observe the following reactions at T(K)T(K) (I) A → products. (II) 5Br−(aq)+BrO3−(aq)+6H+(aq)→3Br2(aq)+3H2O(l)5{Br}^{-}(aq) + {BrO}_{3}^{-}(aq) + 6H^{+}(aq) \rightarrow 3{Br}_{2}(aq) + 3H_{2}O(l) Both the reactions are started at 10.00 am . The rates of these reactions at 10.10 am are same. The value of −Δ[Br−]Δt-\frac{\Delta\left\lbrack Br^{-} \right\rbrack}{\Delta t} at 10.10 am is 2×10−4 mol L−1Min−12 \times10^{- 4}\text{ }mol{\text{ }L}^{- 1}Min^{- 1}. The concentration of A at 10.10 am is 10−2 mol L−110^{- 2}\text{ }mol{\text{ }L}^{- 1}. What is the first order rate constant (in min⁡−1\min^{- 1} ) of reaction I?
