The reaction A rarr X is a first order reaction which takes place in a vessel with initial concentration of A as 10 M. The rate constant for this reaction is 4.16 h^(-1) . In the presence of a catalyst, the reaction A rarr Y follows second-order kinetics and the rate constant is 0.2 min^(-1) M^(-1) . What should be the initial concentration of A in the presence of catalyst so that the value of t_(1//2) for both the reactions is the same?
