Expert Solution
Step 1

We are given the concentration of ethane for different time intervals. We have to find out the half-life for the reaction.

We have given the reaction taking place.

CH23CH3CH=CH2

CH23,M       5.30 ×10-2     2.65×10-2       1.33 ×10-2      6.65 ×10-3
Time, min            0            13.8           27.6           41.4
