Question

Consider a certain reaction A → Products with k = 2.0 × 10−2 s−1. Calculate the concentration of A remaining after 100 s if the initial concentration of A is 1.0 mol L−1.

Open in App
Solution

k = 2.0 × 10−2 s−1

T = 100 s

[A]o = 1.0 moL−1

Since the unit of k is s−1, the given reaction is a first order reaction.

Therefore,

= 0.135 mol L−1 (approximately)

Hence, the remaining concentration of A is 0.135 mol L−1.
