A reaction is known to follow first-order kinetics. What is the half-life (in seconds) if it takes (7.96x10^2) seconds for the concentration of the only reactant to drop from (3.460x10^0) M to (3.470x10^-1) M? Enter your answer in scientific notation with 3 sig figs. Do not include any units in your answer. Do not round any intermediate calculations. Note: Your answer is assumed to be reduced to the highest power possible.
