Consider the first order reaction R P. The fraction of molecules decomposed in the given first order reaction can be expressed as

  1. 1 - ek1t
  2. 1 + ek1t
  3. 1 + e-k1t
  4. 1 - e-k1t

Answer

(4) 1 - e-k1t

Solution

Integrated rate law of a first order reaction: [R]0[R] = k1t

⇒ [R] = [R]0 e-k1t

Fraction decomposed = [R]0 - [R][R]0

= 1 - [R][R]0 = 1 - e-k1t

Answer: (4)

A → B (first reaction) C → D (second reaction) Consider the above two first-order reactions. The rate constant for first reaction at 500 K is double of the same at 300 K. At 500 K, 50% of the reaction becomes complete in 2 hours. The activation energy of the second reaction is half of that of first reaction. If the rate constant at 500 K of the second reaction becomes double of the rate constant of first reaction at the same temperature; then rate constant for the second reaction at 300 K is 10-1 hour-1 (nearest integer).
