Expert Solution
Step 1

The time required for the given concentration reduction is to be determined.

Step 2

For the first-order reaction, the rate equation is:-

                                                t = 1klnC'C                                     …. (1)

t = Time required

k = Rate constant = 0.00110 min-1

C' = Initial concentration = 0.0342 M

C = Final concentration = 0.00889 M
