To solve the problem of how long it will take for the concentration of A to reach 25% of its initial concentration in a first-order reaction, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the given information - The half-life (T_half) of the reaction is given as 2 minutes. - We need to find the time required for the concentration of A to reach 25% of its initial concentration. ### Step 2: Determine the rate constant (k) For a first-order reaction, the relationship between the half-life and the rate constant (k) is given by the formula: ...
