The rate constant for a first order reac...

The rate constant for a first order reaction is `60s^(-1)`. How much time will it take to reduce the initial concentrationof the reactant to its `1//16th` value ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`t=(2*303)/(k)log(a)/(a//16)=(2*303)/(60s^(-1))log16=4*62xx10^(-2)s.`
