MCQ
In fire extinguisher, pyrene is
  • A
    $C{O_2}$
  • $CC{l_4}$
  • C
    $C{S_2}$
  • D
    $CHC{l_3}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$CC{l_4}$
b
(b) $CC{l_4}$ is stable to red heat. Its vapours are highly non-inflammable i.e. do not catch fire. It is because of this property $CC{l_4}$ is used as a fire extinguisher. But now a days its use as a fire extinguisher is restricted because with water vaporous.

It forms highly poisonous phosgene gas
$CC{l_4} + {H_2}O \to \mathop {COC{l_2}}\limits_{{\rm{Phosgene}}} + 2HCl$

For reaction :

$2NO_2(g) + O_3(g) \to N_2O_5(g) + O_2(g)$

rate law is $R = K\, [NO_2]' [O_3]'$.

Which of these possible reaction mechanisms is consistent with the rate law?

Mechanism $I :$

$NO_2(g) + O_3(g) \to NO_3(g) + O_2(g)$ (slow)

$NO_3(g) + NO_2(g) \to N_2O_5(g)$ (fast)

Mechanism $II :$
