Question

60% of a first order reaction was completed in 60 min. The time taken for reactants to decompose to half of their original amount will be

  1. =30 min    
  2. =45 min    
  3. =20 min    
  4. =40 min    

The correct answer is: =45 min


    t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript equals fraction numerator 0.69 over denominator k end fraction equals fraction numerator 0.3 cross times 2.3 over denominator k end fraction
    t subscript 60 percent sign end subscript equals fraction numerator 2.3 over denominator k end fraction log invisible function application fraction numerator 100 over denominator 100 minus 60 end fraction equals fraction numerator 2.3 over denominator k end fraction log invisible function application fraction numerator 10 over denominator 4 end fraction
    k equals fraction numerator 2.3 over denominator 60 end fraction log invisible function application fraction numerator 10 over denominator 4 end fraction
    fraction numerator 0.3 cross times 2.3 over denominator t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript end fraction equals fraction numerator 2.3 over denominator 60 end fraction log invisible function application fraction numerator 10 over denominator 4 end fraction
    equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 60 end fraction open square brackets 1 minus 2 log invisible function application 2 close square brackets equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 60 end fraction left square bracket 1 minus 0.6 right square bracket
    fraction numerator 0.3 over denominator t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript end fraction equals fraction numerator 0.4 over denominator 60 end fraction
    therefore t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript equals fraction numerator 60 cross times 0.3 over denominator 0.4 end fraction equals 45 blank m i n
    Use direct relation
    t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript equals 0.3 comma blank t subscript x percent sign end subscript equals open parentheses log invisible function application fraction numerator 100 over denominator 100 minus x end fraction close parentheses
    t subscript 60 percent sign end subscript equals log invisible function application fraction numerator 10 over denominator 4 end fraction equals left parenthesis 0.4 right parenthesis
    fraction numerator t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript over denominator t subscript 60 percent sign end subscript end fraction equals fraction numerator 0.3 over denominator 0.4 end fraction
    therefore t subscript 1 divided by 2 end subscript equals t subscript 60 percent sign end subscript cross times fraction numerator 0.3 over denominator 0.4 end fraction equals fraction numerator 60 cross times 3 over denominator 4 end fraction equals 45 blank m i n
