For a first-order reaction $A \rightarrow B$,if the rate constant is $k$ and the initial concentration of reactant $A$ is $0.5 \ M$,what is its half-life period?

  • A
    $\frac{0.693}{0.5k}$
  • B
    $\frac{\log 2}{k}$
  • C
    $\frac{\log 2}{k \sqrt{0.5}}$
  • D
    $\frac{\ln 2}{k}$

For a first-order reaction $SO_2Cl_2 \to SO_2 + Cl_2$ at $320\, ^\circ C$,the rate constant is $2.2 \times 10^{-5}\, s^{-1}$. What percentage $(\%)$ of $SO_2Cl_2$ will decompose upon heating for $90\, min$?

In a reaction $A + B \rightarrow C$,initial concentrations of $A$ and $B$ are related as $[A]_0 = 8[B]_0$. The half-lives of $A$ and $B$ are $10 \ min$ and $40 \ min$,respectively. If they start to disappear at the same time,both following first-order kinetics,after how much time will the concentration of both the reactants be the same (in $min$)?
