Given that for a reaction of order n the integrated form of the rate equation is k = 1 t ( n - 1 ) 1 C n - 1 - 1 C 0 n - 1 where C 0 and C are the values of the reactant concentration at the start and after time t. What is the relationship between t 3 4 and t 1 2 where t 3 4 is the time required for C to become 1 4 C 0
Options
- At 3 4 = t 1 2 2 n - 1 + 1
- Bt 3 4 = t 1 2 2 n - 1 - 1
- Ct 3 4 = t 1 2 2 n + 1 - 1
- Dt 3 4 = t 1 2 [ 2 n + 1 + 1 ]
Correct answer
A. t 3 4 = t 1 2 2 n - 1 + 1
Step-by-step solution
t 1 / 2 = 1 k n − 1 2 n − 1 C 0 n − 1 − 1 C 0 n − 1 = 1 k n − 1 2 n − 1 − 1 C 0 n − 1 → 1 t 3 / 4 = 1 k n − 1 2 2 n − 2 − 1 C 0 n − 1 → 2 t 3 / 4 t 1 / 2 = 2 n - 1 + 1 ⇒ t 3 / 4 = t 1 2 2 n - 1 + 1
