Half-life period of a first order reaction is 10 min. Starting with initial concentration 12 M, the rate after 20 min is
0.0693 M min-1
0.693 × 3M min-1
0.0693 × 3M min-1
0.0493 × 4M min-1
C.
0.0693 × 3M min-1
Rate constant remains same throughout the reaction. For first order reaction, half-life of the reactant does not depend upon the its concentration. Hence, we can easily calculate the value of rate constant with the help of provided half-hie value by using the formula t1/2= 0.693/k. Now, we can calculate the k concentration of reactant after 20min and then rate of reaction.
Given, t1/2 = 10min
Stage | Time | Concentration |
Intial | t=0 | 12M |
t1/2 =10 min | 6M | |
t = 20min | 3M |
Since, it is a first order reaction.
Rate = k[A] = 0.069 × 3M min-1
For a chemical reaction, mA → xB, the rate law is r = k[A]2. If the concentration of A is doubled, the reaction rate will be
doubled
quadrupled
increases by 8 times
unchanged
