Question

A first order reaction takes 16 minutes for 50% completion. Calculate the time required for (2)
80% completion of this reaction.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Chemical Kinetics

A first order reaction takes 69.3 minutes for 50% completion. Set up an equation determining the time needed for 80% completion of the reaction. the rate = k[A] [B]2 with k = 2.0 x 10–6 mol–2L2s–1. ... The dimensions of rate constant, k are L mol–1 s–1.
