Chapter DY, Problem 7PQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The half-life for the first order conversion of cyclobutane to ethylene, C4H8(g)2C2H4(g) is 22.7s at a particular temperature.  Then the time in seconds that are needed for the partial pressure of cyclobutane to decrease from 100 mm Hg to 10 mm Hg has to be calculated.

Concept Introduction:

Half-life is given by the equation,

    t1/2=0.693kk-rate constant

Equation relating the rate constant and partial pressure is:

    ln[P]t=-kt+ln[P]o[P]t=partial pressure at time 't' [P]o=initial pressure
