A first order reaction has a rate constant 0.00813 ~min ⁻¹ . How long will it take for 60 % completion?
Options
- A98.7 ~min
- B56.35 ~min
- C112.7 ~min
- D62 77 ~min
Correct answer
C. 112.7 ~min
Step-by-step solution
(A) Original amount of reactant =100[ A ]_ t = Reactant remaining unreacted =100-60=40 For first order reaction, t= 2.303 0.00813 ~min ⁻¹ ₁₀ 100 40 =112.7 ~min
