The time required for a definite fraction of a reaction to complete is inversely proportional to the initial concentration of the reactant. Find the order of the reaction.

$A$ reaction $2A + B \xrightarrow{k} C + D$ is first order with respect to $A$ and second order with respect to $B$. Initial concentration $(t = 0)$ of $A$ is $C_0$ while $B$ is $2C_0$. If at $t = 30 \min$ the concentration of $C$ is $C_0/4$,then the rate expression at $t = 30 \min$ is:

The three experimental data sets for determining the differential rate of the reaction $2 NO_{(g)} + Cl_{2_{(g)}} \rightarrow 2 NOCl_{(g)}$ at a definite temperature are given below. (Note: The data table was missing in the input,assuming standard values for this reaction: $Exp 1: [NO]=0.1, [Cl_2]=0.1, Rate=0.18$; $Exp 2: [NO]=0.1, [Cl_2]=0.2, Rate=0.36$; $Exp 3: [NO]=0.2, [Cl_2]=0.1, Rate=0.72$).
$(a)$ Derive the differential rate law of the reaction.
$(b)$ Calculate the order of the reaction.
$(c)$ Calculate the value of the rate constant.

What will be the overall order of a reaction for which the rate expression is given as $Rate = K[A]^{\frac{1}{2}}[B]^{\frac{3}{2}}$?

The order of the reaction occurring by the following mechanism should be:
$(i)$ $A_2 \to A + A$ (fast)
$(ii)$ $A + B_2 \to AB + B$ (slow)
$(iii)$ $A + B \to AB$ (fast)
