Chapter 11, Problem 11.45PAE

The initial concentration of the reactant in a tirst-order reaction A —» products is 0.64 rnol/L and the half-life is 30.0 s.

  1. Calculate the concentration of the reactant exactly 60 s after initiation of the reaction.

  • How long would it take for the concentration of the reactant to drop to one-eighth its initial value?
  • How long would it take for the concentration of the reactant to drop to 0.040 mol/L?
  • Blurred answer
