The half life of a first order reaction is 2000 years. If the concentration after 8000 years is 0.02 M , then the initial concentration was :
Options
- A0.16 M
- B0.32 M
- C0.08 M
- D0.04 M
Correct answer
B. 0.32 M
Step-by-step solution
Half life period (t_ 1 / 2 )=2000 years aligned k & = 0.693 2000 k & = 2.303 t [ A ]_o [ ~A ]_t 0.693 2000 & = 2.303 8000 [ A ]_o 0.02 [ A ]_o & =0.32 M aligned
