A first order reaction takes 25 minutes for 25% decomposition. Calculate t_(1//2). ""["Give ":log 2=0.3010,log3=0.4771,log4=0.6021] |

Answer» SOLUTION :Apply the relation : `K=(2.303)/(t)"log"([R]_(0))/([R])` `25%` decomposition means `[R]=0.75[R]_(0)` and `t=25` minutes Substituting the VALUES in the EQUATION above,, we have `k=(2.303)/(25)"log"([R]_(0))/(0.75[R]_(0))` `=(2.303)/(25)"log"4/3` `=(2.303)/(25)[log4-log3]` `=(2.303)/(25)[0.6021-0.4771]` `=(2.303)/(25)xx0.1250=0.011515" minutes"^(-1)` `t_(1//2)=(0.693)/(k)` `=(0.693)/(0.011515" minutes"^(-1))` `=60.18" minutus"` |
