As the concentrations [B] and [C] are much greater than [A], this is a pseudo second order reaction, the new rate law is: r=k′[A]2
The integrated rate law is:
1CA=k′t+1CAo
Substituting, we get k′=25×104L/mol min=4000L/mol min
For calculating thalf
1CAo/2=4000t+1CAo
CAo=10−4M
On substituting, we get: thalf=2.5min
