Calculate the rate constant of the first order reaction if $20 \%$ of the reactant decomposes in $15 \ minutes$.

Consider the first-order gas-phase decomposition reaction given below:
$A_{(g)} \longrightarrow B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$
The initial pressure of the system before the decomposition of $A$ was $P_i$. After time $t$,the total pressure of the system increased by $x \ units$ and became $P_t$. The rate constant $k$ for the reaction is given as:

Find the time period of a $1^{st}$ order reaction when the reaction is $\frac{2}{3} ^{rd}$ complete. If the value of the rate constant is $4.3 \times 10^{-4} \, s^{-1}$.

What is the half-life of a first-order reaction if the time required to decrease the concentration of the reactant from $0.4 \ M$ to $0.1 \ M$ is $x \ \text{hours}$?

For a first-order reaction $A \to B$,the rate of reaction at a reactant concentration of $0.01 \, M$ is $2.0 \times 10^{-5} \, mol \, L^{-1} \, s^{-1}$. The half-life period of the reaction is .... $s$.

$A$ first order reaction has a rate constant of $1.5 \times 10^{-3} \ s^{-1}$. How long will $5.0 \ g$ of this reactant take to reduce to $3.0 \ g$?
