Introduction

Reaction kinetics is the study of the speed of chemical reactions and how they are affected by changes in temperature, the concentration of reactants, pressure, and the presence of catalysts. It is a branch of physical chemistry that is concerned with the rate of chemical reactions and the factors that influence it.
The rate of a reaction is determined by various factors, including the concentration of reactants, the presence of a catalyst, the temperature, and the pressure. The rate of a reaction can be increased by increasing the temperature, decreasing the concentration of reactants, or increasing the pressure. A catalyst is also often used to speed up a reaction by providing an alternate reaction pathway with lower activation energy.

 

According to the question,

For the first-order reaction,

The initial concentration of the reactant A is given by =Ao =0.350 M at time t=0

The final concentration of the reactant A is given by = A = 0.185 M at time t=10 s

The temperature is given by =300°C

 

Find- The concentration of reactant A at 69 s
