Nero didn't persecute Christians because they wouldn't worship the gods. He used them as scapegoats for problems in the City, starting with the fire of 64 AD (which Nero himself likely had started so that he could build a palace on the site).

Were Muslims afraid of Jews?

No, I don't think most Muslims were afraid of Jews. But Muslims were certainly puzzled and frustrated by the refusal of most Jews to convert to Islam. Muslims sincerely believed they had the true religion, and they could not understand why Jews did not accept the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad. This was similar to the reaction of the Christians in their early days-- they too believed they had the true religion and could not understand why most Jews did not accept Jesus as the messiah.These days, sad to say, many Muslims are taught negative stereotypes about Jews (some based on the situation in Israel and Palestine, some based on certain verses from the Qur'an that seem to say Jews are devious or untrustworthy), while in other cases, such as in pluralistic societies like the United States, Jews and Muslims generally get along well and respect each other's religions.

The Bahraini population is a mixture of Muslims, Christians, Hindu and small number of Jews.

What is the order of the reaction with respect to the concentration of a?

The order of the reaction with respect to the concentration of A refers to how the rate of the reaction changes with changes in the concentration of A. It can be zero order, first order, second order, etc., depending on how the rate is affected by the concentration of A.


How is rate of a chemical reaction usually expressed?

Rates of reaction can be expressed depending upon their order.For example say you have a reaction between two chemicals and the initial rate for that reaction is known :-when:-The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and the other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction does not change - reaction is zero orderwith respect to chemical which was doubled.The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction doubles - reaction is first order with respect to chemical which was doubled.The concentration of one of the reactants is doubled and other reactants concentration remains the same and the overall rate of reaction quadruples - reaction is second order with respect to chemical which was doubled.Zero Orderrate = kFirst Orderrate = k [A] (reaction is 1st order with respect to [A] and 1st order overall)Second Orderrate = k [A][B] (reaction is first order with respect to [A] and first order with respect to[B], reaction is second order overall)rate = k [A]2 (reaction is second order with respect to [A] and second order overall)Orders are simply added together in order to determine the overall order of reaction :-rate = k [A][B][C] would be third order overall and first order with respect to each of the reactantsThere are other orders of reaction, for example 2 and 3 quarter orders and third order reactions, but these are a little more complex.

What is the order of the reaction with respect to clo2?

The order of a reaction with respect to ClO2 is determined by the exponent of ClO2 in the rate law expression. If the rate law is of the form rate = k[ClO2]^n, then the order with respect to ClO2 is n. This value can be determined experimentally by measuring how changes in the concentration of ClO2 affect the reaction rate. If the concentration of ClO2 does not appear in the rate law, then the order with respect to ClO2 is zero.
