Question
For a certain chemical reaction variation in the concentration ln [R] vs. time plot is given alongside.

For this reaction:

  1. What is the order of the reaction?
  2. What are the units of rate constant k?
  3. Give the relationship between k and t1/2 (half-life period).
  4. What is the slope of the curve?
  5. Draw the plot log [R]0 /[R] vs time t(s).

Answer

  1. First order.
  2. Time-1 (s-1)
  3. $\text{k}=\frac{0.693}{\text{t}_{1/2}}$
  4. Slope = - k (rate constant).
  5.
