The ratio t_ 1 / 2 : t_ 3 / 4 of a reaction having order equal to ' n ' (n 1) is ( t _ 3 / 4 is the time required for concentration of reactant to drop to 3 4 times its initial value)
Options
- ADependent on initial concentration [A₀ ] and equal to 2^ n-1 [A₀ ]^ n-1 ( 3 4 )^ n-1
- BDependent on initial concentration [A₀ ] and equal to 2^ n-1 [A₀ ]^ n-1 -1 ( 4 3 )^ n-1 [A₀ ]^ n-1 -1
- CIndependent of initial concentration and equal to 2^ n-1 -1 ( 4 3 )^ n-1 -1
- DIndependent of initial concentration and equal to n 2^ n-1 -1 n ( 4 3 )^ n-1 -1
Correct answer
C. Independent of initial concentration and equal to 2^ n-1 -1 ( 4 3 )^ n-1 -1
