The time `t_(1//4)` can be taken as the time taken for the concentration of a reactant to drop to 3/4th of its initial value. If the rate constant for a first -order reation is k, then `t_(1//4)` can be written as

A

0.10 /k

B

0.29 /k

C

0.69 /k

D

0.75 / k

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

For a first order reaction `t_(1//4)=(2.303)/(k) log (1)/(1-1//4)=(0.29)/(k)`
