For an elementary reaction , `X(g)toY(g)+Z(g)` the half life period is 10 min. In what period of time would the concentration of X be reduced to 10% of original concentration?A. `20 min`B. `33 min`C. `15 min`D. `25 min` |
Answer» Correct Answer - B Use the formula: `(t_(10%("left")))/(t_(1//2)) = log((100)/(10))/(0.3)` `t_(10%)("left") = (t_(1//2) xx 1)/(0.3)` `= (10 min)/(0.3) = 33 min`.Correct Answer - B Use the formula: `(t_(10%("left")))/(t_(1//2)) = log((100)/(10))/(0.3)` `t_(10%)("left") = (t_(1//2) xx 1)/(0.3)` `= (10 min)/(0.3) = 33 min`. |
