    $2.3 \times 10^{-2} \text{ s}$
  • B
    $9.5 \times 10^{-2} \text{ s}$

Decomposition of $A$ is a first order reaction at $T \ K$ and is given by $A_{(g)} \rightarrow B_{(g)} + C_{(g)}$. In a closed $1 \ L$ vessel, $1 \ bar$ of $A_{(g)}$ is allowed to decompose at $T \ K$. After $100 \ minutes$, the total pressure was $1.5 \ bar$. What is the rate constant (in $min^{-1}$) of the reaction? (Given: $\log 2 = 0.3$)
