Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the rate constant (k) for a first-order reaction given its half-life (t_half), we can use the formula: \[ t_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{k} \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Information**: - The half-life (t_half) of the reaction is given as 20 minutes. ...
