Question

Derive integrated rate equation for rate constant of a first order reaction

Answer 1

A plot of [A], that is concentration, versus time t, will be linear with slope equal to (-k) and the intercept equal to [A]o. The rate constant k of the reaction is given by, The time taken for the initial concentration to reduce by half is given by, From the t1/2 relation, the rate constant k can be calculated.
