For the reaction 2C ® A + B, 0.01 mole of A is formed during the first 15 seconds of the reaction. Assuming?

the rate of reaction remains constant for two minutes which of the following statements is true?

after 2 minutes 0.08 moles of B were produced
after 2 minutes 0.08 moles of C were consumed
both (a) and (b) are true
both (a) and (b) are false

Answer:
As the rate was constant, we have number of moles of A produced after 2 minutes = 0.01*120/15=0.08 moles of A will be produced.

Now look at the equation. 2C ====> A + B
It states that when 2 moles of C react, one mole each of A and B are formed.

So, the number of moles of B formed = 0.08 moles
And, the number of moles of A reacted = 0.16 moles

So (a) is the correct answer.
