MCQ
Bromine is obtained on commercial scale from
  • A
    Caliche
  • Carnellite
  • C
    Common salt
  • D
    Cryolite

Answer

Correct option: B.
Carnellite
b
(b) Carnellite is $KCl.MgC{l_2}.6{H_2}O$. The mother liquor life after crystallisation of $KCl$ from carnellite contain about $0.25\%$ of bromine as $MgBr_2$ and $KBr$.

Consider the following single step reaction in gas phase at constant temperature.

$2 \mathrm{~A}_{(\mathrm{g})}+\mathrm{B}_{(\mathrm{g})} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}_{(\mathrm{g})}$

The initial rate of the reaction is recorded as $r_1$ when the reaction starts with $1.5 \mathrm{~atm}$ pressure of $\mathrm{A}$ and $0.7 \mathrm{~atm}$ pressure of B. After some time, the rate $r_2$ is recorded when the pressure of $C$ becomes $0.5 \mathrm{~atm}$. The ratio $r_1: r_2$ is $\qquad$ $\times 10^{-1}$.
