In a reaction $2A + B \to A_2B$,the reactant $A$ will disappear at

The velocity of disappearance for $HI$ is $2.4 \times 10^{-2} \ mol \ L^{-1} \ s^{-1}$. Calculate the rate of formation of $H_2$.

The rate of reaction is expressed as
$+\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[C]}{dt} = -\frac{1}{3}\frac{d[D]}{dt} = +\frac{1}{4}\frac{d[A]}{dt} = -\frac{d[B]}{dt}$
The reaction is:

Assertion : Ionic reactions are not instantaneous.
Reason : Oppositely charged ions exert strong forces.

Ammonia and oxygen react at high temperature as $4 NH_{3(g)} + 5 O_{2(g)} \longrightarrow 4 NO_{(g)} + 6 H_2 O_{(g)}$. If the rate of formation of $NO_{(g)}$ is $3.6 \times 10^{-3} \ mol \ L^{-1} \ s^{-1}$,then the rate of disappearance of ammonia is:
