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 concentration of the reactant to its `1//16^(th)` value?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`t = (2.303)/klog.x/(x//16)=(2.303)/(60s^(-1))log 16 = 4.62xx10^(-2)s`
