In a first order reaction,the concentration of reactant decreases from $800 \ mol/dm^3$ to $50 \ mol/dm^3$ in $2 \times 10^2 \ s$. The rate constant of the reaction in $s^{-1}$ is:

  • A
    $2 \times 10^4$
  • B
    $3.45 \times 10^{-5}$
  • C
    $1.386 \times 10^{-2}$
  • D
    $2 \times 10^{-4}$

$A ( g ) \rightarrow 2 B ( g ) + C ( g )$ is a first order reaction. The initial pressure of the system was found to be $800 \ mm \ Hg$ which increased to $1600 \ mm \ Hg$ after $10 \ min$. The total pressure of the system after $30 \ min$ will be . . . . . . $mm \ Hg$. (Nearest integer)

Assertion : For a first order reaction,$t_{1/2}$ is independent of initial concentration.
Reason : For a first order reaction,rate constant $k \propto [R]$.

If the rate constant for a first order reaction is $k$,the time $(t)$ required for the completion of $99 \%$ of the reaction is given by

The time taken for $10 \%$ completion of a first order reaction is $20 \ min$. Then, for $19 \%$ completion, the reaction will take (in $min$)
