    \[{{t}_{1/2}}\]for a first order reaction is 10 min. Starting with 10 M, the rate after 20 min is

    A)  \[0.0693\text{ }M\text{ }mi{{n}^{-1}}\]

    B)  \[0.0693\times 5\text{ }M\text{ }mi{{n}^{-1}}\]

    C)  \[0.0693\times 2.5\text{ }M\text{ }mi{{n}^{-1}}\]

    D)  \[0.0693\times 10\text{ }M\text{ }mi{{n}^{-1}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Given,\[{{t}_{1/2}}=10\]min \[t=20\]min \[{{N}_{0}}=10M\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[t=n{{t}_{1/2}}\] \[20=n\times 10\] \[\therefore \] \[n=2\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{N}{{{N}_{0}}}={{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[\frac{N}{10}={{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{n}}\] Or \[\frac{N}{10}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\therefore \] \[N=\frac{10}{4}=2.5M\] \[\therefore \] Rate\[=k[A]\] \[=0.0693\times 2.5\text{ }M\,mi{{n}^{-1}}\]
