NEET Solved Paper 2019 Question 15

Question: If the rate constant for a first order reaction is k, the time (t) required for the completion of 99 % of the reaction is given by-[NEET 5-5-2019]

Options:

A) t = 4.606/k

B) t = 2.303/k

C) t = 0.693/k

D) t = 6.909/k

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Chemical kinetics $ t=\frac{2.3}{K}\log \frac{a}{a-x} $

$ =\frac{2.3}{k}\log \frac{1.0}{1} $

$ \frac{2.303\times 2}{k} $

$ {t _{99}}=\frac{6.606}{k}4.606/k $
