Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.136MP
The reaction A is first order in the reactant A and is known to go to completion. The product C is colored and absorbs light strongly at 550 nm, while the reactant andintermediates are colorless. A solution of A was prepared, and the absorbance of C at 550 nm was measured as a function of time. (Note that the absorbance of C is directly proportional to its concentration.) Use the following data to determine the half-life of the reaction.
