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"`
