For a first order reaction A B the reaction rate at reactant concentration of 0.01 M is found to be 2.0 10-5 mol L-1 s-1. The half-life period of the reaction is
- 30 s
- 220 s
- 300 s
- 347 s
Answer
(4) 347 s
Solution
For a first order reaction: rate = k[A]
k = 2.0 10-50.01 = 2.0 10-3 s-1
t1/2 = 0.693k = 0.6932.0 10-3
= 346.5 s 347 s
Answer: (4)
