Compound A and B react to form C and D in a reaction that was found to be second-order over all and second-order in A . The rate constant –at 30ºC is 0.622 L mol –1 min –1 . What is the half-life of A when 4.10 × 10 –2 M of A is mixed with excess B ?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
39.2 minutes
Sol. A + B → C + D
Second order with respect to A
then t 1/2 = 
⇒ t 1/2 = 
= 39.2 min
