A first-order reaction has a specific reaction rate 10−2sec⁡−1.{10}^{- 2}\sec^{- 1} . How much time will it take for 20g20g the reactant to reduce to 5g5g?

Options

  1. A238.6second238 . 6second
  2. B138.6second138 . 6second
  3. C346.5second346 . 5second
  4. D693.0second693 . 0second

Correct answer

B. 138.6second138 . 6second

Step-by-step solution

t12=0.69310−2secondt\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{0 .693}{{10}^{- 2}}second

For the reduction of 20g20gof reactant to 5g5g, two t12t\dfrac{1}{2} is required.

∴t=2×0.69310−2second∴ t = 2 \times \dfrac{0 .693}{{10}^{- 2}}second

=138.6second= 138.6second
