For a first order gas phase reaction:
$A_{(g)} \rightarrow 2 B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$
Let $P_0$ be the initial pressure of $A$ and $P_t$ be the total pressure at time $t$. The integrated rate equation is:

  • A
    $\frac{2.303}{t} \log \left(\frac{P_0}{P_0 - P_t}\right)$
  • B
    $\frac{2.303}{t} \log \left(\frac{2 P_0}{3 P_0 - P_t}\right)$
  • C
    $\frac{2.303}{t} \log \left(\frac{P_0}{2 P_0 - P_t}\right)$
  • D
    $\frac{2.303}{t} \log \left(\frac{2 P_0}{2 P_0 - P_t}\right)$

Dissociation of $N_2O_5$ dissolved in $CCl_4$ at constant temperature: $N_2O_{5(soln)} \to 2NO_{2(soln)} + \frac{1}{2}O_{2(g)}$. This is a first order reaction. The velocity constant is $5.0 \times 10^{-4} \ s^{-1}$. The initial concentration of $N_2O_5$ is $0.25 \ mol \ L^{-1}$. How much time is required to produce $0.20 \ mol \ L^{-1}$ concentration of $NO_2$ (in $s$)?

Hydrolysis of methyl acetate in aqueous solution has been studied by titrating the liberated acetic acid against sodium hydroxide. The concentration of the ester at different times is given below:
Time $(t)$ $(\min)$ $0$ $30$ $60$ $90$
Conc. of ester $(C)$ $(M)$ $0.850$ $0.800$ $0.754$ $0.710$

Show that it follows a pseudo first order reaction as the concentration of $H_{2}O$ remains nearly constant $(55 \ mol \ L^{-1})$ during the course of the reaction. What is the value of $k^{\prime}$ in this reaction?

Consider the following two first order reactions occurring at $298 \ K$ with same initial concentration of $A$: $(1)$ $A \rightarrow B$; rate constant, $k=0.693 \ min^{-1}$ $(2)$ $A \rightarrow C$; half-life, $t_{1/2}=0.693 \ min$. Choose the correct option.

$A$ first order reaction is found to have a rate constant,$k = 5.5 \times 10^{-14} \ s^{-1}$. Find the half-life of the reaction.

Half-life for a first order reaction is $6.93 \ hour$. What is the time required for $80 \%$ completion of the reaction (in $hours$)?
