The rate equation for a first order reaction is given by [R]=[R]₀ e^ -k t . A straight line with positive slope is obtained by plotting. [R]₀= initial concentration of reactant, [R]= concentration of reactant at time, t
Options
- A[R]₀ [R] vs time
- B[R] vs time
- C[R] vs time
- D[R] [R]₀ vs time
Correct answer
A. [R]₀ [R] vs time
Step-by-step solution
For the equation [R]=[R]₀ e^ -k t Taking log we get array rlrl & [R] & =-k t+ in [R]₀ & & [R] [R]₀ & =-k t & & & k & = 1 t in [R]₀ [R] k & = 2.303 t [R]₀ [R] array When graph is ploted of [R]₀ [R] against t , we get a straight line with positive slope = k 2.303 .
