NEET Chemistry Question (2025) — Solution

Question

If the rate constant of a reaction is 0.03 ~s ^ -1 , how much time does it take for 7.2 ~mol ~L ^ -1 concentration of the reactant to get reduced to 0.9 ~mol ~L ^ -1 ? (Given : 2=0.301 )

Options

  1. A. 69.3 s
  2. B. 23.1 s
  3. C. 210 s
  4. D. 21.0 s

Answer

A. 69.3 s

Step-by-step solution

aligned & K =0.03 ~s ^ -1 (First order reaction) \\ & A _0=7.2 ~mol ~L ^ -1 \\ & ~A _ t =0.9 ~mol ~L ^ -1 \\ & 7.2 t _ 1 / 2 3.6 t _ 1 / 2 1.8 t _ 1 / 2 0.9 \\ & t =3 t _ 1 / 2 = 3 0.693 0.03 =69.3 ~s aligned
