A) 0.383 min
B) 23.1 min
C) 8.73 min
D) 7.53 min
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
For the first order reaction Rate\[\left( \frac{dx}{dt} \right)=k[A]\] \[[A]\to \]concentration of reactant \[k\to \] rate constant Given that \[\frac{dx}{dt}=1.5\times {{10}^{-2}}mol\,{{L}^{-1}}{{\min }^{-1}}\] \[k=?\]and\[[A]=0.5\,M\] \[\therefore \] \[1.5\times {{10}^{-2}}=k\times 0.5\] \[\therefore \] \[k=\frac{1.5\times {{10}^{-2}}}{0.5}=3\times {{10}^{-2}}{{\min }^{-1}}\] For first order reaction Half-life period\[{{t}_{1/2}}=\frac{0.693}{k}=\frac{0.693}{3\times {{10}^{-2}}}\] \[=23.1\text{ }min\]You need to login to perform this action.
