$t_{1/4}$ for a first-order reaction is given as:

  • A
    $t_{1/4} = \frac{2.303}{K} \log 4$
  • B
    $t_{1/4} = \frac{2.303}{K} \log 2$
  • C
    $t_{1/4} = \frac{2.303}{K} \log \frac{4}{3}$
  • D
    $t_{1/4} = \frac{2.303}{K} \log \frac{3}{4}$

If the decomposition reaction $A_{(g)} \longrightarrow B_{(g)}$ follows first-order kinetics,then the graph of the rate of formation of $B$,denoted by $R$,against time $t$ will be:

For a first-order reaction,it takes $20 \, \text{min}$ for the concentration to decrease from $1 \, M$ to $0.6 \, M$. How much time is required for the concentration to decrease from $0.6 \, M$ to $0.36 \, M$?

The value of rate constant for a first order reaction is $2.303 \times 10^{-2} \text{ s}^{-1}$. What will be the time required to reduce the concentration to $\frac{1}{10}$th of its initial concentration (in $\text{ s}$)?

$A$ reaction has a half-life of $1 \, \text{min}$. The time required for $99.9 \, \%$ completion of the reaction is ......... $\text{min}$. (Round off to the nearest integer)
[Use: $\ln 2 = 0.69, \ln 10 = 2.3$]

The reaction $2A \rightarrow \text{Product}$ follows first-order kinetics. If the initial concentration $[A]_0 = 0.2 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ and the half-life period $t_{1/2} = 20 \ min$,calculate the rate constant $k$.
