Answer:
It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.
Explanation:
A → B
Initial concentration of the reactant = x
Final concentration of reactant = 10% of x = 0.1 x
Time taken by the sample, t = ?
Formula used :
where,
= initial concentration of reactant
A = concentration of reactant left after the time, (t)
= half life of the first order conversion = 56.6 hour
= rate constant
Now put all the given values in this formula, we get
t = 188.06 hour
It will take 188.06 hours for the concentration of A to decrease 10.0% of its original concentration.
