Consider the following reaction, the rate expression of which is given below

$\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B} \rightarrow \mathrm{C}$

$\text { rate }=\mathrm{k}[\mathrm{A}]^{1 / 2}[\mathrm{~B}]^{1 / 2}$

The reaction is initiated by taking $1 \mathrm{M}$ concentration $A$ and $B$ each. If the rate constant $(k)$ is $4.6 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$, then the time taken for $\mathrm{A}$ to become $0.1 \mathrm{M}$ is . . . . . . . . . . sec. (nearest integer)
