Show that is case of first order reaction , the time required for 99.9% completion is nearly ten times the time required for half completion of the reaction.

Answer»

SOLUTION :Let `[A_0]=100, `
When `t=t_(99.9%),[A]=(100-99.9)=0.1`
`k=(2.303)/t LOG (([A_0])/([A]))`
`t_(99.9%)=(2.303)/k(100)/(0.1)impliest_(99.9%)=(2.303)/klog100 `
`t_(99.9%)=(2.303)/k(3)impliest_(99.9%)=(6.906)/k`
`t_(99.9%)~=10xx(0.69)/k`
`t_(99.9%)~=10t_(1//2)`
