To show that the time required for the completion of 99% of a first-order reaction is twice the time required for the completion of 90% of the same reaction, we can use the first-order kinetics equation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the First-Order Reaction Equation**: The integrated rate law for a first-order reaction is given by: \[ t = \frac{2.303}{k} \log \left( \frac{A_0}{A_t} \right) ...
