To solve the question step by step, we will follow the principles of first-order kinetics. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Data:** - Rate constant (k) = 60 s^(-1) - Initial concentration (A₀) = A₀ (let's assume the initial concentration is A₀) - Final concentration (A) = A₀ / 10 (we want to reduce the concentration to one-tenth) ...
