`A(g)overset(Delta)rarrP(g)+Q(g)+R(g),` follows first order kinetics with a half-life of 69.3 s at `500^(@)C.` Starting from the gas A enclosed in a container at `500^(@)C` and at a pressure of 0.4 atm, the total pressure of the system after 230 s will beA. 1.15 atmB. 1.32 atmC. 1.22 atmD. 1.12 atm |

Answer» Correct Answer - D `A(g)rarrP(g)+Q(g)+R(g)` `{:(At " t"=0,0."4atm",0,0,0),(At" time "t,(0.4-x),x,x,x):}` `p_(t)=(0.4-x)+x+x+x=0.4+2x` `orx=(p_(t)-0.4)/(2)` `thereforep_(A)=p_(0)-x=p_(0)-(p_(t)-0.4)/(2)` `=(2xx0.4-p_(t)+0.4)/(2)=(1.2-p_(t))/(2)` `k=(2.303)/(t)"log"((p_(0))/(p_(A)))` `(0.693)/(t_(1//2))=(2.303)/(230)"log"((0.4xx2)/(1.2-p_(t)))` `(0.693)/(69.3)=(2.303)/(230)"log"((0.8)/(1.2-p_(t)))` `"log"((0.8)/(1.2-p_(t)))=(0.693xx230)/(69.3xx2.303)=0.9987` `(0.8)/(1.2-p_(t))=Antilog(0.9987)=10` `therefore" " 12-10p_(t)=0.8orp_(t)=1.12" atm"` |
