The time required for 60 % completion of a first order reaction is 50 ~min . The time required for 93.6 % completion of the same reaction will be
Options
- A100 ~min
- B83.8 ~min
- C50 ~min
- D150 ~min
Correct answer
D. 150 ~min
Step-by-step solution
Time for 60 % completion =50 ~min for first order reaction. Time required for 93.6 % completion = ? k= 2.303 50 a a-0.6 a k= 2.303 50 a 0.4 a k= 2.303 50 2.5 Also, k= 2.303 x a a-.936 a 2.303 2.5 50 = 2.303 x a 0.064 a x=50 1000 64 2.5 =50 15.625 2.5 = 1.19 50 0.398 = 59.5 0.398 =150 ~min
