It takes 31 s for 1.27 M H₃PO₄ to decrease its concentration to 7.0% of its initial value following first-order kinetics.
<h3>What is first-order kinetics?</h3>
First-order kinetics occur when a constant proportion of a reactant disappears per unit time.
Let's consider the following first-order kinetics reaction with a rate constant k = 0.086 s⁻¹.
2 H₃PO₄(aq) = P₂O₅(aq) + 3 H₂O(aq)
Given the initial concentation is [H₃PO₄]₀ = 1.27 M, the concentration representing 7.0% of this value is:
[H₃PO₄] = 7.0% × 1.27 M = 0.089 M
We can calculate the time elapsed (t) using the following expression.
ln ([H₃PO₄]/[H₃PO₄]₀) = - k × t
ln (0.089 M/1.27 M) = - 0.086 s⁻¹ × t
t = 31 s
It takes 31 s for 1.27 M H₃PO₄ to decrease its concentration to 7.0% of its initial value following first-order kinetics.

Answer: Yes, magnesium will replace hydrogen because magnesium is higher on the activity series list.
Explanation:
A single replacement reaction is one in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its salt solution.
A general single displacement reaction can be represented as :
When magnesium is added to hydrochloric acid, magnesium being more reactive than hydrogen displaces hydrogen atom its salt solution and lead to formation of magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas.
When burning sodium (Na) in oxygen (O2), you get sodium oxide (Na2O) and/or sodium peroxide (Na2O2). At high pressures, you can additionally get sodium superoxide (NaO2).
4 Na + O2 → 2 Na2O, and then partially 2 Na2O + O2 → 2 Na2O2.
Under normal conditions, approximately 20% of the mixture is Na2O2.
6 Na + 2 O2 → 2 Na2O + Na2O2

Following the key in the diagram (see the attached image), the only particle diagram that represents a mixture of three substances is diagram 2.
To simplify it, let us replace the key in the diagram as follows;
- atom of one element = A
- atom of different element = B
Diagram 1 consists of only AA and AB
Diagram 2 consists of AA, BB, and AB.
Diagram 3 consists of AA and ABA
Diagram 4 consists of AA and BAB
Thus, only diagram 2 has a mixture of 3 substances.
